Which $5 do you prefer? (1 Viewer)

[Seeking Alpha Social Club]

The $1 chip (blue) is a done deal. I am building the set around that chip. I am trying to decide on a $5 chip.

I originally started with a radiant red $5. I LOVE IT!!

Peeps suggested using a yellow $5 instead. I got em and they are definitely growing on me.

So....which do you prefer? If your choice is neither, please suggest an alternative $5.

Thanks!!

How about both? A yellow $20

 

[kaimat]

Do you have a frac? Aren't cali colors red quarters, blue $1s, and yellow $5s?

These yellow five lovers are a bunch of deviants.

 

[CraigT78]

Those yellow $5's are FIRE.

 

[JMC9389]

Yellow. Both the base color and edge spot progression fit best.

 

[detroitdad]

Edge spots work better with the yellow in my opinion

 

[Goldfish]

I actually like the yellow a lot - but I introduced a yellow 5 to my group and it confused them all night long…… went back to red.

I would prefer this red, but with more contrasting edge spots.
This yellow, again, is not radiant (an impolite remark by a person coming from CPC)

Already have plans for a $20, but I'm open to thoughts.

Ditch the leaded 4D14s since they clash w/ the oversized pinks I believe you plan to use, keep the RPC $20s as fives, and find a light green color to use as a frac. If you use the blurple oversized instead of pinks for $20s, then keep after those RPC radiant red fracs for relabel fracs.

I ran a mock-up of the RPC $20s to use in a set next to those same radiant red 4d14s and it just feels kind of off:

Great chip IMO……

Yes sir!! I'm trying to grab a rack of these to go with the secondary (yellow) $5s. If I can't get them, I might use the radiant red I have as a frac.

Trust me, my group is used to confusion...especially when I out the Aces Casinos in play...LOL.

If the $20 is going to be purple, then you 'll "have" to use the yellow $5

I like the Pink as a frac, yellow as a $5... we throwin spot progression out the window but it's all good! Lots of spots and purdy colors! Roll with it Kev.

So those pinks are about 9.6g each, are the new chips in the same ball park? I saw @PocketAces post that some of these are even heavier so shouldn't be an issue!

Lookin good!

Thanks!!

The oversized pinks would be secondary and in play onky with the yellow chips. The blurple would be my primary that would go with the radiant red.

My current thoughts are...

Primary

Secondary, but with the red radiant RPC frac

 

[Budha]

As a stand alone chip, the red - hands down! In the proposed line up, I would probably go with the yellow largely due to spot pattern.

Yeah...and to add more uncertainty, softchewy informed me that the fracs I want are less than 9 grams.

Clarify my previous statement based on the additional pics:

Neither option is wrong - lol!

Thanks, kind of what I'm thinking. But I keep looking at those AWESOME reds and just can't seem to let them go.

less than 9 grams.

Chips and women's legs have to be muscular; not heavy

I love em!!

Put me in the Red 5, Yellow 20 camp.

 

[RowlettTexasChipGuy]

I would take the yellows off your hands if it would make your decision easier


just trying to help

but seriously

 

[liftapint]

Blaze $5

That's a serious proposal, but what's going to happen to the gorgeous purples?

Yes exactly, I had the same initial reaction .Those reds are fantastic!!

Damn it, you almost had me at a decision.

If I had to make a decision, I think the spot pattern would drive me to the yellow. For me, a totally different spot pattern either needs to go at the front or the end of a line-up. I have no rational explanation for that logic btw, it’s just a “thing” for me

Racked, the reds look amazing. I think face-up the difference would tug at me.
