LeLe's PCF Journey (4 Viewers)

[LeLe]

An updated of my existing set-ups that I have accumulated till date.

I am hosting much lesser nowadays but hoping to start running it up again soon in Oct when my busy work schedule is over.

Still somewhat in semi-retired mode and doing some adding on here and there. Also, waiting for @Stas to be back active so I can do some much needed add on to my B&G set.

Nice collection! My favorite here is the Opus.

How does the CIC set play? Does it feel like your Opus or B&G set?

Nice collection! My favorite here is the Opus.

Thanks, I am happy to have a chance to own a set of those when they become available.

How does the CIC set play? Does it feel like your Opus or B&G set?

All 3 of them felt and sound different to me as most different plastic set do.

My friends mostly have very polarizing feedback on CIC, I like them myself because of its uniqueness and using vastly different setup is more fun to me too.

What happened to the PCA?

What happened to the PCA?

I sold them a couple of months ago, my tastes changed and no longer enjoyed worn chips as much anymore

I get it. Always a good day when you realize something just doesn't do it for you anymore.
I've sold all my RHC just because I prefer THC.
Condition is no deal breaker for me but I love playing with broken in chips. Slightly rounded edges are the nuts.

 

[LeLe]

It's the opposite for me, I don't really mind playing with RHC over THC but condition play a big role in my choices.

What happened to the PCA?

I cleaned them up, oiled them and take good care of them

Updated Post #14 - Part I
Horseshoe Cincinnati Cash Set

Gotten my labels and relabel done with a new Fracs & $1 to match the rest of the lineout.

This is my first try at labeling but I have some mixed feelings about the quality of the labels.

These had been a 9 months project in the making and I am very excited and can't wait to felt them in my next home game.

Also, I wonder if I should add a third rack of $5 to this set in the future. Chippers mentality

 

[OfficerLovejoy]

excellent choice of fracs.

 

[inapinch]

Set looks fantastic!

and+1 on choice of inlay pattern for the frac label

Updated Post #14 - Part II
BTP 43mm Card Mold Cash Set

At last, I did an add-on and received them during the weekends, the $500 add-on was so disappointing with how off is the colour differences from the original batch. (Luckily, the $500 add-on will never be in play as I just have them to fill up a rack)

Other than that, the other is pretty good and no issue with the slight variant here and there.

I have just about the ideal 1,200 chip set that can cover any stake that I want and it also came with the PCF recommended 4 racks of $5.

 

[Anthrax]

Great sets. Keep going

 

[LeLe]

Small updates on add-on to the set before the end of the year,

(i) Condado Plaza CIC Set

Added a third rack of $5 to the existing set, decided to get them before they are eventually sold out in the future plus 3 racks of $5 is my preferred # of workhorse rack now.

Updated Chips Breakdown (Stake for 1/2 to 2/5)
- $1 x 100
- $5 x 300
- $25 x 200
- $100 x 100
- $500 x 60

(ii) Diamond Jack Sec Set

Added a fourth rack of $5 & 2nd rack of $25 to the existing set from the latest TCR sales.

It will be dumb to not add on the set when the price for Mint chip is priced at $1/chip.

Updated Chips Breakdown (Stake for 25c/50c to 1/3)
- 25c x 100
- $1 x 200
- $5 x 400
- $25 x 200
- $100 x 100

Might do it during Year 3 haul instead, rather busy with work at year end

Haha, the excess disposable money saved during covid help to fast track the collection a bit

Yes I am married and she does know, I did slowed down a lot for the collection in the past 6 months as I got a better understanding of what I liked and disliked. And also I having a newborn early next month too and raising baby is very expensive over here

You might need a little extra support under the middle of the shelves....

The load bearing per shelf is advertised at 36 kg and it used durable iron reinserts boards but still I am only going to try to limit within 18-20kg just in case

There's still a reasonable chance it will bow over time. 20kg is only 2000 chips, after all. Less if you have any "official" casino weight.

 

[LeLe]

It look nice and have some pretty good spacing left for my poker set accessories to be decorate progressively

I do realise I might need a 3rd rack of BG $5 after racking the sets into the cabinet

 

[digirati]

This is my future?!

 

[LeLe]

This is my future?!

More likely than not if one continue to stay in PCF

Too many enablers and temptation around
