$1 - Blue or White (1 Viewer)

My custom blues

My custom-relabelled whites, still shiny and mint, due to Covid

My first reaction was, "I like both!" and then I realized that I have four cash sets, all with blue $1s, so I guess I like one better than the other!

I’m very surprised by the poll results. I would guess in real life casinos, white $1s outnumber blue $1s by at least 5:1, probably a lot more than that.
I’m a traditional color guy, and Cali colors mostly tilt me. The blue $1 is the exception - I can certainly tolerate those (probably because they’re the most mainstream of the Cali colors.). But I’ll always prefer the white $1, by a lot.

Easily #TeamBlackDollar, white shows dirt too easily.

FYP @SeanGecko would agree.

I actually love white chips, but it just shows so much dirt. I’d rather it as a higher denom chip in the set such as a $20 or $100 where it doesn’t see as much play.

I don't think this is necessarily the case anymore. Looking at the major casinos on the Vegas Strip and Downtown from my BOLO collection, there are about equal numbers of white base and blue base $1s. In the rest of Nevada, the ratio doesn't favour white by a large margin, I'd estimate maybe 60:40 in favour of white from my non-Vegas BOLO samples.

Perhaps non-Nevada, non-California casinos still prefer white base for $1s.

In vegas and nevada, sure. But from sea to shining sea? It seems like a 2v white RHC is the default $1 chip that Paulson/GPI will make for you, unless you specify otherwise.

white for non-CA sets. gives more flexibility for the frac color.

Where are all of the team black dollar people?
