Sitting Out
Hello. I'm Jordan and I'm addicted to poker chips.
It happened so fast... Just a few days ago I was just looking for some super cheap chips to act as markers for a wild west board game. Dice chips wouldn't do. I needed denominations. I found what I was looking for, but in looking I opened my eyes to the world of chips.
I've wanted set for a long time, but never really liked dice chips. I had no idea there was anything better. I always admired they way a barrel of casino chips looked with the edge marks creating interesting patterns as a pro stacked them on WPT. Why didn't they have anything like that for consumers?
I started looking on Amazon and found some very interesting products. But they were all too heavy. 13.5g is silly. And the reviews were pretty bad. A search for "poker chip reviews" led me to the YouTube channel of the one and only John Hobby. And I'm sure you can guess where that led.
Now I have about 6 samples on the way, as well as 3 different plastic card sets and acrylic trays.
Now I just need to settle on my first set, find a decent case and a good table topper that works with my table. Oh and for covid to go away so I can set up a regular game. And to get way better because one of my friends was a pro player in his youth.
Anyway, glad to be here. I'm looking forward to sharing my new obsession with you all.
