Deciding On A Poker Chip Set
April 17, 2008
Hosting a poker game at home means that you should honor your guests by playing with a nice poker chips set. It is of course a matter of pride to produce a fine looking poker chips set when you sit down to play with your friends. A good poker chips set is a mark of class for the person hosting the poker game.
For instance if you produce a set of Wal-mart plastic chips you are telling your fellow players, that you are not really interested in poker and you are not planning on hosting any more games. A composite poker chips set will look a little better and brand you as someone who has somewhat of an interest in poker but also thinks of saving money on his poker chips set. Your ultimate statement would be a set of Paulson clay poker chips, embossed with a custom image. This tells all your gaming friends that you are passionate about poker and only the best poker chips will do for you and your elite friends. It is true that a poker chips set will speak reams about a person.
After you decide what kind of poker chip set you want, the next thing to decide is what kind of case you want your chips in. If you’re going to keep your chips at home, then you may want to go with a beautiful mahogany display case with sliding draws, lush green felt and a glass top so you can always look at your little beauties. If you’ll be carrying your chips around, then you’ll want a poker chip set with a carrying case.
You actually have 2 choices when it comes to selecting a carrying case for your poker chips set. One is wood and the other is aluminum. Although wood is decorative, aluminum is really more practical. After all the only thing you want to do is to get your set to your destination without the chips getting damaged. Wood carrying cases can get chipped or even crack but aluminum cases will not get damaged very easily.
So you have the right chips and case for them, now you just have to make sure your poker chip set has everything you need for the game. It should include; poker chips, 2 decks of cards, a dealer button and dice. The dice are not as important as the other things.
You are ready to go with your new poker chip case. Now go ahead and begin playing your own games with your friends. Work on your poker skills but above all enjoy your game.
