I always say, you're really not a chipper till you've owned 50 sets

I always say, you're really not a chipper till you've owned 50 sets

What if you can run 50 tables with one set?

 

[MegaTon44]

48? That's such a cute number....

Seriously though, damn impressive.

Classic case of ovo-buying.

Intense. So, to clarify, you own 48 sets now? Or, these are the 47th and 48th sets you have owned, but you no longer have that many?

I mean, either way I'm impressed, and I will never be in that company, but maintaining 48 sets...

 

[BGinGA]

I believe you, and would appreciate seeing a chronological list. Pics optional.

Big plans for number 50?

Join the club. Haven't hosted since 2013. At the time I had about 7k chips. Now that I no longer host, I have closer to 16k. WTF is wrong with me?

that would be some work, reached my age in sets, so 1 a year is good now, some sets still not playable, so they might not qualify under someone's definition

 

[Solid Snake]

I'm jealous, keep building!!

 

[RussB42]

ovo,

How do we have the same disease living so far apart ????????????

I bet it's contageous !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If it can be used heads up, it's a set.

 

[BGinGA]

If it can be used heads up, it's a set.

That's my definition. And if it can be combined with other chips to create a mixed set, well, that one counts too.....

 

[ovo]

I tired not to use mixed sets, so I might be one or two short

 

[Poker Zombie]

"He's a couple denoms short of a set."

Yep, I'm using that line in the future...

 

[courage]

Disagree. That seems to stretch the definition to the breaking point.

 

[BGinGA]

Mixed casino sets don't count as sets? Feel free to disagree, but i doubt very many others will.

 

[pltrgyst]

Mixed casino sets don't count as sets? Feel free to disagree, but i doubt very many others will.

The problem with mixed sets is defining or counting them. Apart from single-casino sets, say I have several racks each of ten different $1s, ten different $5s, ten different $25s, and ten different $100s. -- and I choose the ones I use as strikes my fancy every time I have a game. I actually do that. How many mixed sets does that constitute?

If you say "10,000", I like the way you think. :

I probably have fifty dedicated heads-up sets alone, but I never thought of counting them as actual "sets" for PCF purposes...

 

[slisk250]

Mixed sets count 100%, but again depends on the situation I guess. I have added 2 racks of Motor City Quarters to my Crystal Park set. It is a set without them. It is a better set with them.

I also did not count a few mixed sets just yet as I'm not quite finished...a denom here and a denom there are missing. I could use a substandard choice to fill the hole but then I'd wrongly think that the set is complete and quit searching. Where is the fun in that? I don't double dip. For purposes of this thread and set counting, I chose to only allow chips to be part of one set. If I want to use those MC quarters on another set. I should have 2 more racks racks IMO. That's why I bought 4 racks of those sweet Jack $2s. Need to include them in two sets. Probably the Terrible's STJ secondary as quarters (selling the maroon roulettes) and for PCA secondary quarters (like them better than the pink .50s)

I also like thinking that Larry really has 10,000 sets.
