Hello everyone! I'm from NY, and I've been lurking for a bit around here, but finally decided to make an account for this wonderful community.

I've been playing poker since college, and my friends and I still play the occasional poker game, with the same chips from almost 13 years ago! Trying to step up our game some and get some quality chips. Can't way to fall deeper into the rabbit hole, and get to know you all!

Hello and welcome!

Welcome and enjoy. So much good advice and knowledge here. The classifieds are a great place to find chip upgrades - it only took me about a week on PCF to buy a set.

Welcome juggyyy Bear

Ty ty all! Very kind. @BirdCage what did you end up getting? I've been browsing classifieds and also getting samples from a number of places to try out as many as I can. I need to get my hands on a hybrid next.

Welcome Juggyy!
I live in Riverdale BX. I host a game about once a month. I sold a bunch of sets, but I do have various sample chips if you want to check them out. We play a .25-.50 NLHM with a min of $100. Nice to have a local chipper in the the community!

We mostly play Texas hold 'em, with the occasional dealers choice. I'd say about 80% tourney and 20% cash. There is usually between 6-8 players. I'm a little undecided on what chips I like. I've got a sample of ceramics, and some China clays. I definitely do not like the China clays other than the royals. The ceramics, I love the feel of them, don't love the super smooth edges so much though.

Thank you! Wow, you got a very nice set up there. I may hit you up one day, I'm a little rusty for now though haha. Very nice chips also, are those hybrids?

They are custom Matsui’s which are high end plastics. If plastics interest you, there is a group buy in the process.

Abbiatti’s will probably rank the top favorite among plastics for feel and color.
And rusty? Please don’t let the set up fool you. I definitely spend more time drooling over chips then working on my game lol. The guys at my game are buddies and we play to have a good time. Seriously, if you see our game you will not be intimidated

Edit: sale thread to group buy

Haha alright I'll keep it in mind and maybe reach out at some point. I figured those were the Matsui. I have been looking at the Abbiati group buy, but they seem a little pricey for a first set, looks like over $2 a chip after fees etc?

The Matsui’s were my first set. I love them, I wish I was a bit smarter with the quantity ordered, but you live and learn.
Yeah Abbiati’s aren’t cheap, but they do make some pretty chips!
