[Round 1] PCF Favorite BOH - Group 2: Pick 5 (1 Viewer)

[PocketAces]

What you are voting on:
- color combinations, inlay design
- other qualitative factors like the history of the casino (if that means something to you)
If you had to pick 5 x BOH, and not own any other BOH ever again, which ones would you pick?

What you aren't voting on:
- rarity/availability
- condition
- affordability
- how they look in their respective line-ups, how they look in your mixed set. Pick 5 x BOH you'd want to build a set around irrespective of cost/availability

Not all pictures are barrel pictures but, as per the rules of the original nomination thread, the chips are know to exist in quantity > 20

This one was tougher

At the top end, yes. But there are a lot of duds in this one for me

Disclaimer: I own some of the chips included in this poll.

But let’s get it out of the way, I own a rack of Atlantic Maritimes and I didn’t vote for them.

I picked Aruba, LCO, Macon County, Casino Royale and Starlites. But for me this group is more about the duds that are considered greats than which one is best - expect some controversial comments here (but PLEASE don’t take them personally).

The Pick Hobson looks like it was designed by a 2yr old, the inlay of the Sands $100 almost gave me a stroke and the PCA secondary $100 is just bland. This group was a bit weak IMO

the PCA secondary $100 is just bland

Didn't vote for it myself, but the picture itself isn't doing too much justice; it's a surprisingly "rich" chip

Hotel Nevada vote surprises me, but this was relatively more diverse heat between the hot-stamps and TRKs.

I wonder if the pics are coming into play in some regard. I'd suggest barrel-only pics if it wasn't such a PITA w/ all the work you're already doing.

Me too. I never really likes them. Until now. I think they’re cool.

100%. I wish I could have a uniform picture format for each chip but that would have required some work from each owners etc and reality is, I’m not sure many people care lol (I do though)
