Sitting Out
So recently I changed out my Paulson Chips to ceramics. I’m not sure I really like how the ceramics play. Has anyone
felt the same and went back to clay?
felt the same and went back to clay?
Clay chips will always be my first poker chip choice. But I have room in my heart for some top tier ceramics.
I'm not sure I follow, going from Paulson to ceramics feels like going backwards.So recently I changed out my Paulson Chips to ceramics. I’m not sure I really like how the ceramics play. Has anyone

Which ceramics? Is there quality differences between ceramics or are they all pretty much the same thing in terms of feel?I owned plastics, a ceramic set, and china clays before becoming a hard-core true clay chip convert.
However, I still own both clays and ceramics, in addition to ceramic hybrids.... although clays remain my favorite and see the most use.
I've owned Chipco, BRPro (pre-ABC), PGI, Sun-Fly, ABC, and GOCC full-face-printed ceramics. Among those, I actually preferred the PGI chips in terms of surface feel, and the current ABC chips in terms of rolling edge configuration and treatment, but all are/were excellent chips imo. Inexpensive ceramics from China tend to have more quality issues (slippery surface, high percentage of spinners, prone to breakage, etc.). You can't go wrong with any of today's Sun-Fly or ABC/BRPro ceramic chips.Which ceramics? Is there quality differences between ceramics or are they all pretty much the same thing in terms of feel?
Size also matters, since performance is somewhat tied to the amount of surface contact area
Very detailed, I've only had set of cermaics and felt a few other ones but to me they were the same, I dont know if the other ones were chipco or not but they had the same textured feel but with really big numbers.I've owned Chipco, BRPro (pre-ABC), PGI, Sun-Fly, ABC, and GOCC full-face-printed ceramics.

Hybrids (ceramics with recessed center and laminated label) and debossed molds (ceramics with mold markings) offer different characteristics than standard ceramics. Size also matters, since performance is somewhat tied to the amount of surface contact area and chip weight.
Me to a T.I believe in diversity. I own clays, ceramics, and high-end plastics. Some ex-casino, some fantasy, some custom. Nevada colour progressions, California colour progressions, and non-standard colour progressions. Some in original condition, others well used. All are good, all are usable. Each came at different price points.
Still not finished collecting. Still got a few projects to finish.
So recently I changed out my Ferrari’s to Honda Civic’s. I’m not sure I really like how the Civic drives. Has anyone
felt the same and went back to Ferrari’s?
