2016 WSOP Paulson chip mold? (1 Viewer)

Sorry if this has been discussed before, but what mold are they using for the 39mm 2016 wsop ME chips? I know for previous years they have used the RHC. I've paused my tv a few times they showed the chips up close, but was unable to see a rim mold design. Are they using the 'smooth mold' for the 39mm chips and the larger denoms?

I'm pretty sure the ME chips are RHC. There are some older posts/threads about this on the forum. If I remember correctly @Tommy made a thread full of pictures of them a while back.

Per BG in the Todd Brunson thread, the new yellow chip appears to be a 50-mm no mold chip in canary yellow with day green and black spots.

39mm non-holdem and holdem are RHC.

Looks like Canary Yellow with Indian Blue and Black.

Thank you Tommy for the good info on the yellow chip. Apologies if I misspoke or misrepresented anything.

Thank you Tommy for the good info on the yellow chip.

I was just taking a guess based on that screenshot. Nice looking chip no matter what the official colors are.

I love Indian Blue so much.

All of the Main Event chips are 39m RHC mold except for the top two denominations -- 500K and the new 1M chips are 50mm no-mold.

The secondary set (typcially non-Hold'em events, but not always) is also primarily 39mm RHC mold with two top denomination exceptions -- the newest 100K and 250K chips are 43m IHC mold.

What are the 50mm molds? Fat H&C and smooth?

 

[BGinGA]

No hats/canes. Called the crest & seal mold.

Ouch. Are those also for sale at the chip room?
Who gets all those chips after tournament?
