Your PICKS for best "THROWAROUND PAULSONS" for an RHC micro cash set? (2 Viewers)

[upNdown]

I say you play your chips or you sell your chips.
But the hurdles people go through with fracs, I just don’t understand. Get some starbursts or suitable roulettes or something. When the $1 and the $5 have a $1 and a $5 on them, people will know that the other one is the frac.
But just play your chips.

Does it have to be rhc? Sounds like maybe ceramics or Tina card mold would fit the bill?

I see your concern though, it's like buying that brand new car and being deathly afraid of that first shopping cart ding. But, did it cheapen the car for you?

Like others have said...play the chips and enjoy!

I'd also vote for the diamond jacks. Under $2 / chip for nice, mint RHCs with nice fracs included. Not going to find a better or easier option.

Flea bites add character. Felt them or sell them.

Casino Cancun $5’s are abundant and affordable. Usually $2.50/chip or so. The $25’s are dirt cheap, usually under $100 per rack and would make a great frac.

I’m in the “play ‘em” crowd also.
I mean, why buy chips if you don’t want to use them? I could see maybe having a backup set for travel or for “frat party poker night”…

Putting some mileage on mint chips, or even getting some pizza grease on them is hardly as bad as leaving them on the shelf collecting dust.

100%. Picked up some cheap ASM chips for limit circus game/cigar nights with a beatup deck of cards.

The irony of me using ceramics on my more serious nights and clays for my cigars-on-the-porch poker is not lost on me.

I purchased some HSI's and Jack used sec 5's that I felt I could throw around.

You have to understand, since the game where I did felt some pretty nice mint Paulson's, one of them said they preferred my original CC Pharoah's...the next game I looked around the table at my best friends, brothers, sister and Dad and thought:

Felt them! The chip angels weep everytime a ”minty, unplayed by me chips ad”, is posted.

Horseshoes and HSIs are good candidates for relabel or playing as is. One of two sets used regularly at the Animal House. I love them, the players love them and I didn’t pay a fortune for the set (as compared to some of my other sets).

Something like this is a great set on a budget I sold recently. Relabel the $25’s to fracs.

I have a thought experiment I'd like to run by this group and it stems from the underlying anxiety I have of felting my first MINT set of Jack Detroit's. Part of me would like to just felt them, use them, occasionally clean pizza off them and just own them forever and not care. And the other part of me is apprehensive. Let's suspend this thought for a second and not turn the thread into a lengthy debate around collecting vs felting and living vicariously vs the anxiety that comes with felting $4k+ sets

Felt it! That's what these sexy clay discs are for! Don't buy a "throw away" set. Buy three more sets. Rotate them out. Then your minty set will stay pristine forever. Unless your group is a bunch of animals. If that is the case.

Or buy 3 Clay set + 1 casino grade plastic set, use the plastic set if your group tend to abuse the chip

I love these Caesars $1’s. Very easy to sort for newer ones when I was there in January.

Hotstamps never really did anything for me but when I saw these in person they got me.

They’d go great with a starburst frac imo.
