Chips pop on a black felt. I’m a fan. Don’t think it would be an issue unless your chips are black solids

I personally like B and D the best. Leaning towards B. Smile, clean and makes a statement…..

As pictured, I like B the best. While I like D, something is throwing me off with the text that I cannot pinpoint. I wonder how it would look straightened instead of curved like it's going on an inlay.

That's a good point. You could also try Animal on the left of the logo and House on the right of the logo. That might look pretty sweet.

EDIT: Attached a quick mockup of it. Of course I don't know what font you had. I like your font much better. This would need a little bit better alignment.

I like this one too. I would consider making the Animal House text in the darker gray color, that way the graphic still stands out a little more. Cool design.

Here ya go with both colors. Tried to center up a little bit as well. If you try to center everything, it takes your logo off center some. So you'd have to pick what you'd prefer to do there if you want with this layout of text.

I think centering the logo would be best. Maybe play with the kerning with both words to make “Animal” slightly narrower and “House” slightly wider to balance?

Yeah they could certainly do that. I'm using a free online photoshop tool. I don't know if it actually lets me adjust the kerning. The spacing in those words right now are literally just a space typed in between each letter.
 
These are awesome! I have already reached out to Tony/Ray. I am going to go with this new version. This is just another reason why this forum is great! Thanks much!

Okay okay... I really like the logo and am having fun playing around. Threw a couple others together. I'll stop now! :D

I think the Dual Logo is a little busier, but if you are using a dealer it gives a more natural spot for the house cards. Also I like the bigger logo with the text on both sides more than the text up top. I feel like there is too much empty space around the logo with just text up top.

These are awesome! So much to think about. Thanks for doing this!
 
What do you think of their sample chips? Do different models / lines / versions feel different?
 
Thanks to everyone who voted, and special thanks @Rymack10 For coming up with all the options and creating the new felt design! I am gonna send you a thank you gift. PM coming. Final answer:

looks great but i think there is an opportunity to do something with the letters or the background space. seems a little too plain atm. how about some sort of animal print or claw marks layered over the top of it to give it a bit of pop/texture

Could incorporate that into the cross hatch pattern, alternating with the lion head.

Check these out. I think you could make either the lion head or the claws the darker grey to so you have variation in the pattern. I only did the left half with the claws. I didn't do the ones right up to the edges, but this gives you a good idea.
