Hello all,
Just started my poker chip journey and after watching many YouTube videos and reddit threads I learned that the idea of simply wanting to purchase a high quality poker chip set is much more complicated than expected. Who knew haha.
I would like to have a setup to be able to play with 1 table 6-10 players low stakes cash or tournament games (which I know most members say get 2 different sets). However I would like to be able to expand my set in the future to play with 2 tables for tournaments with more players. I expect to play with people that wouldn’t want games to take more than 3-4 hours.
I have learned that this forum is the best place by far to gain knowledge on the subject and I have started accumulating some samples to learn about the look, feel, sound etc. in person. Other than the sample attached that I ordered from Amazon, Apache, and some super cheap hand me downs, I have a sample set of Key West chips on the way. Very excited to see those as I think the design is great and all the rave reviews about CPC.
So far I know I like a standard diameter 39mm chip over the larder sizes. I like the ceramic base chips more than the plastic, plastic with metal slug or china clay. However I think the feel and sound of the Jumer’s real casino poker chips made by Paulson sound and feel far better than the rest.
I am the kind of person that wants to buy one time and keep it for a really long time so I am leaning towards trying to source a Paulson set or maybe a CPC set depending on how I like the Key West chips.
Other than the samples I have already picked up, if you do have any recommendations for samples I should try please do let me know!
Thanks.
