The Official Mail Showcase Thread (poker related) (115 Viewers)

My lightbox came in today and while I’m remarkably unskilled at photography I figured I’d take some of my nicer singles out and photograph them. Got each chip in order going from 50mm to 39mm.

Good start! Maybe just tilt them 45 degrees or so, so that the faces get some light too?
Yeah I need to get those easel things. I’m the future I’d use those, but they weren’t available to me this time. I was really impressed with the difference in picture quality though compared with what I used to get without it. The biggest difference I noticed was that the light quality was much much much better with less glare. I’m gonna play around this weekend though since it’s got diffusers and stuff that I don’t entirely know how to use lol

You can just play with some dice under the chip to test the effect, or LEGO ;)

Although these didn't come in the mail these are still new additions to my collection. I had an absolute blast at the CCA Convention/Show the past 3 days being able to meet so many amazing people, sharing stories, chips, information and more. I only had a little bit of time to go around to all the dealers over the couple days to see what I could buy. With that I am very excited and hyped with the goodies I was able to find. They are a majority TRKs, which I love, but I was able to find a few neat Paulsons. BIG thanks to everyone that made the show exciting. Here's my haul!

I'm not particularly captivated by the Paris $2, but I do see how it could make a great frac relabel for any RHC set that uses a white (or at least non-light blue) $1.
I'm definitely not a fan mixed with Paris $1s/$/5s b/c of the mold difference (PCA people can put hits out on me, I know I know) ... but I think as a standalone chip, it's pretty unique. The silvery/sparkly base color is very nice and the pink half-circles give a pop of color. Certainly could be used as a frac! I used the Santa Ysabel $25 as a frac and it has the same half-circls and some metallic coloring as well.

In fact, if building a semi-custom Paulson RHC set, the Paris $2 and the SY $25 would be pretty damn hot together.
 
Soo... serious question... does it count as mail if your dumb ass leaves your own chips at another members house at a meet up?

Umm... asking for a friend? Lol

Thanks @Irish , I promise next time you won't have to mail me my own crap back after your meet up brother! 2 for 2 in two years! Uggh
BtW this cost me another 2 bills - I was oogling those 25s when I was packing them up and ended up buying a rack for my set.... :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:
