Show Me Your Mixed Game Plaques (1 Viewer)

POST YOUR MIXED GAME PLAQUES

You know, the things that remind you what game you're playing?

I know there has previously been interest in a group buy for these, but I don't think anything worked out. I'd like to see what people are currently using or what is used at your home casino.

Note: I ordered a custom set of 3x4 plaques for myself and a buddy and will post pics when they come in. If they turn out nicely, I'll post links of where I ordered.

Here's an interesting choice... varnished wood. I think I would like each plaque to be a different color so as to easily differentiate between games.

Lackluster Horseshoe plaques (I think these are just laminated paper cards).

 

[ruskba]

Very interested to see what you ordered!

Some other examples found online:

Has ANYONE had these made for their home games??

 

[SWEATER]

And here’s what I ended up with, made through www.customsigns.com. I was happy with their online design tool, and the cost was about the most reasonable I found online. Quality is generally good, though the plastic is a little thinner than I envisioned. The colors pop in person and are very distinguishable from one another on the table (even the grey and black). Each letter is cut cleanly.

Let me know if you have any questions.

These look great! What size did you go with?

@beaver These are the 3x4 engraved plastic signs (indoor) with no backing. Very happy with the result!

Borrowed from @thorwilliam :

 

[ruskba]

Got mine in the mail yesterday, well, most of them. They forgot two and a few were poorly cut so I asked them to redo them which they agreed to with no real problem.

Agree with @SWEATER that the quality is decent, moreso with the 25% off code they give you if you sign up for their mailing list. I got the 2x6.

BEAUTIFUL! They look great! I had a few more made. I’ll take a few photos and post in the next few days

What is Scrotum? Besides the skin sack of which holds testicles.....

 

[ruskba]

I haven’t actually played it yet, but it sounds like fun.

Go here to find all the games plus many many many more

Scrotum8 (hi/lo) is currently my fav game. Plays great as fixed-limit, pot-limit, or as a tournament format.

Its a fun game. Played much better as Hi/Lo imo.


What are the price of these "signs"? I'm starting to host more dealers choice games. This could be a nice addition to the night.

 

[ruskba]

They were $4.50 each for 2” x 6”, free shipping, using the code WELCOME25 at www.customsigns.com

Just a reminder that Scrotum can also be played with only four cards dealt. This can be a useful option when used in a mixed game with more players...

That's about what I paid for the 3x4s. Maybe a little difference.

My wife would laugh me out of the house if she ever saw plaques on the table that said "Scrotum" or "Stud".

I think my wife was just eye rolling too much at the thought of a poker accessory that she couldn’t focus enough to read what they said.

I have a 30% off code for customsigns.com if anyone is thinking about ordering. PM me if you’d like it.

I’ve also seen 50% off on holidays if you’re on their mailing list and have some patience.

 

[v1pe]

Very cool, I need some of these!

Post pics when they come in!

I'm late to this party, but have these that I got a few years ago. I'm not crazy about them in practice, they're a little big (4x6, 3mm thick printed on white plastic). But they do the job. They were expensive too, on Signs.com. I'll have to check out customsigns.com, I've been thinking about getting some different games made and might go for a whole new set.

 

[fieldsy]

Just a heads up for anyone looking at ordering plaques, customsigns.com has a deal going with promo code CSBFRIDAY that says it's "buy one get one 50% off," but when I used it in my cart it was actually 50% off my full order. I got twelve 3x4 signs for about $40 including shipping.

The mixed game I play most often uses these, printed out and laminated: https://www.pokerchipforum.com/resources/abby99s-mixed-game-cards.45.

It's nice to have a visual reminder of what game you're playing, but IMO, it's even more valuable to have a handy, illustrated synopsis of how the game works. Especially useful for introducing new players to the game. I can't lavish enough praise on @abby99 for the work, attention to detail, and perpetual maintenance that she has put into these.

Thank you!!!

They did come in handy at the Divide when dealing an unfamiliar game.

After trying out some short deck in our last cash game, I had to order a few extra cards to round out my collection. I like the idea of having some indication on the cards of how to play if it’s a less-familiar game, but not all games require much guidance.
