Whoa, two racks of Kings! Great job man.

Since I finally filled my fracs rack, I’m sharing my current almost perfect mixed set for my 6-8 handed $.25/.50 NLHE game. But first, I have a couple of thoughts for newbies who drool over all the other sets in this thread, like I do.

1) Size doesn’t matter.
Don’t feel inferior about the size of your set, unless your goal is, as a collector, to build the biggest, baddest set. My goal is to build the best set for my game, and here it is. If I start playing $1/$2, yeah, I’ll want to add on another three racks of reds and probably some bigger chips too. But for MY game, (I’ve never had more than $1100 on the table) this $1700 bank is perfect.

2) if it works for your game, it isn’t stupid.
Listen, $10 chips are stupid. I AGREE! But I happen to love these $10 chips - they’re local and quirky and awesome. And for my small game, I arguably don’t need any chips bigger than $5s anyway. So I’m great with these, for this game. If I were hosting $1/2, yeah I’d put these aside and use $20’s or $25s. But I’m not.

Point is, If your set is good for your game, show it off and be proud. You can be jealous of the guys with 8 racks of reds, but if they don’t own a second table, they’re all show. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that either!)

I'm a big fan of that $10 chips personally, I love the bright green on darker green contrast. I'd snag those in a heartbeat if I could. Nice set man

The current state of my mix-and-match mixed set. What started as a innocent 'hey it'd be kinda cool to get some secondaries' has gotten a little out of control.

What are these $5’s? I like the design

Chips that are basically impossible to obtain. Palais something or other, I forget exactly. Sorry, I know this was not helpful.

On the plus side, somebody will be happy to show you their giant collection of them

The $5s are secondary PCAs and there are plenty of them out there.

No, I think they're Palais De Congres $5s.

 

[anstossfreak]

PCA?

No! I think he means this chip:

This is Palais des Congres de Montreal, Quebec.

Too bad you are anti-lead now

Side piece needs some variety.

Fun fact: there are two non leaded chips in those sets.

I don’t love the fact that the Happy Knights are a $10 but they look friggin great here.

Personally think a brighter frac would flow better in the set. Still, nice work

Up to 2400 $1’s for my limit set

I’m surprised you don’t have 1000 $5s.

That is an exceptionally beautiful set, love the colors. Especially the black $20. Mildly bugged by the spot progressions going from 4d14 to 3d14, and the repeating casino, but godddamit, that’s so pretty!
