The greatest all time custom set... Silver Dust Casino @toad94

@abby99's Lady Luck Club BCC set is my favorite custom set evah--it is spectacular. There are many other great customs, but none come close, IMO. Second best custom set is @Psypher1000's TRK quarterpie tribute set. Just absolutely amazeballs.

Best casino set is @ssanel54's Trop set, and it's not even close.

My other favorite sets are sitting about 10 feet away from me as I type this.
 
Another set I’d describe as a favorite...
Before I knew what a PokerChipForum was, I bought a table from @Tommy and when I picked it up, he showed me these WSOP chips he had (not sure which ones, I believe they were ceramics) and I was ole hook line and sinker.
Maybe he remembers, I’d definitely like to know what they were exactly as they’re so many WSOP replica I probably wouldn’t be able to pick them out.

This is spot on.
Lady Luck Club BCC
@Psypher1000 tribute set
(I'd throw in @Tommy 's broken bell set too).

@ssanel54's Trop set
And then any set within 10 feet of @gopherblue

edit: Of course, the Lakeshores are my top choice for a Paulson set. Sorry for the omission. I get a little distracted, thinking of TRKs. But those Lakeshores, oh la la.

For me, the best Paulson set is Lakeshore Inn, and the best TRK set is @liftapint's Nevada Lodge set.

My favorite cash game customs are difficult to decide between. But it's probably either @72o Knollwood set or @Psypher1000 tribute set.

My favorite tourney customs are my Cali Rounders tourney set, followed closely by @Chippy McChiperson's Nirvana Lounge tourney set.

My favorite Paulson tourney set is probably the Wynn charity set, even though I can't stand Steve Wynn.







 
As much as I love @abby99 's Lady Luck set - and in the interest of full disclosure, it was either #1 or #2 on my most wanted sample set for years until I finally snagged it - if I were to take one custom clay cash set of someone else's right now it would be @k9dr 's Suicide Queen set. The mesh of spot pattern, inlay, colors, mold, and everything just subtly whispers "old school" in your ear (until the queen shoves a knife in it).

For my favorite custom clay tournament set right now, I'd lean toward's The Hitching Post by @Mr Tree followed very, very closely by @toad94 's [insert tournament set here], @Rhodeman77 's Treehouse set, and @Chippy McChiperson 's Nirvana Lounge set (pictured above).

For casino cash, as awesome as the aforementioned Trop 2nd's set of @ssanel54 is - and it is pure joy, to be sure - I'd actually have to lean toward the Riverside cash set by @gopherblue. I'm taking the set, the table, the pictures, the cut cards, the dealer buttons, and everything, and I'm fleeing to the North Pole where nobody can find me. This is the one small crown cash set that I've ever touched chips of where I'd be weak enough in the knees to own it.

That said, if it had more $1's (and I know it's going to get there eventually), I'd be sorely tempted to run away with the Trop 1st set by @41Pickup. I'm actually surprised I haven't seen it mentioned yet.

VERY honorable mentions in this category would be the Lakeshores owned by @RainmanTrail (pictured above) and the RVCL set by @softchewy.

The Oceanside Card Club set put together by @BiGGyT should also be mentioned. It may be used, but I love the consistent spot pattern and the overall look. Not to mention the effort and money it took to put together any of these cash sets!

For casino tournament, I'd have to go with the Paulson Aviation Club de France owned by [redacted], followed closely by the Argosy spotted tournament set which I can't seem to find pictures of right now.

In the ceramic category, the Paymaster set by @Mr Tree (along with the storage case and table) reigns supreme.

I also feel compelled to mention the Clermont Lounge set on the smooth plain mold by jbutler. This is about as perfect of a modern crest & seal-style set as I think has ever been custom made for a modern home game. Sets like this don't often get much run, but if I had to choose one set of cash solids, I'd probably grab this & run fast and far since we can't reproduce it today.

Ooooooh. I forgot about Berg's Truman House custom Paulsons. It would be tough to beat those, for me. I love everything about them (except that I can't have them). The $5 might be my favorite chip of all time.
 
+1 for Bean Town Poker by @sheikh617 - It's just perfect, I can't stop looking at photos of it whenever they pop put somewhere (and he sure does make sure we do ;) ). I hope that, with time, I'll get a chance to collect a similar combination for my own collection.
I'm just a proud father, what can I say ;). Thanks for the love!
