Biggest Chip Set (3 Viewers)

love the Club Courage butterscotch 5

 

[ski_ex5]

I'm sorry... did I find the Testosterone Thread? Am I in the right place?

At this point, can we can all just agree that Racer Mike and JCFJ are the two BSOCs (Big Studs on Campus)?

Wow... such NICE chips, and SO MANY of them! Great stuff, guys.

 

[JFCJ]

The Club Courage HHR cash set is one of the most awesome sets in my book. I've had the pleasure of donating while playing with those chips twice... I can never decide which chip is my favorite, between the $1 and the $5.

had long post, gotta fix the formatting...will be back. BTW, is there a "Preview" button for a post before actually hitting "post"? I find that very useful. Thanks

Waaay back I had over 3,000 Chipco Classics, 3K+ Pharaohs & 5K plaques, nearly 4K 2005 WSOP replicas

Then I moved on...mostly 3K or more of each...Archetypes, Speakeasys, Top Hat & Cane Worlds, Paulson Pharaohs

Sold a bunch, got me some Proteges

Had a few Custom BCC T-mold Hot Stamps done by Michael at Holdempokerchips

Got to know the UPS girl pretty well by now -- she posed for a pic for me.

Became addicted to Desert Palms:

Jim at the Chiproom put a trance on me and got me hooked on PCA's & Hwy 9's (9's from a Casino near me)

The sickness finally peaked with a decent set of Crystal Parks

After Chip rehab (came to my senses) -- sold off most. Have some CP's, DP's, Pharaohs, Tikis and a custom ceramic set never posted (someday maybe).

Sorry for the long post -- fun looking back. If this is too much Tommy, just tell me and I'll delete a bunch...no problem

 

[ski_ex5]

Wow... Those PCAs are my second favorite photo in the bunch. Beautiful.

If I had to pick ONE pic of all the chips I've ever seen bud, this is #1 or #2. It's also on my top ten regret list (not following through with my purchase of a set). Simply beautiful.

This is one GB that I now regret not getting in on. The way I had been treated by BCC and the way things were going with them at the time scared me off. I had already been bitten once and didn't want to again.

It stings every time I see pics like these knowing I don't have a set in my vault.

I think that's the perfect description for many of us.

My biggest Paulson set is the Dunes, but my ASM set is bigger.

ASM Customs (Truman's House) - 200 nickels, 400 quarters, 1300 $1s, 900 $5s, 200 $25s, 100 $100s (total # of chips = 3100; total bank = just under $20K)
Dunes Paulson (Tourney) - 260 $25s, 230 $100s, 125 $500s, 80 $1000s, 55 $5000s (43mm) - enough for a 45 person 10K tournament - 750 total chips
Dunes Paulson (Cash) - 100 $1s, 500 $5s, 240 $20s (43mm), 60 $100s (43mm), 3 $500s (43mm) - total # of chips = 903; total bank = just under $15K)

I have an incomplete PNY set with 200 Paulson hotstamp PNY quarters, 600 $5s, 400 $25s, and 20 $100s. I need 2 racks of $1s to make it playable.

It was a true gamble. We can but hope future brings something equal to us some day. One can never tell.

 

[pltrgyst]

True. But after getting screwed by BCC on the Grand Card Room solid hotstamp chips, it was a gamble I was unwilling to take. I sure do envy those of you you took it those500, 1K, and 5K chips, though! :

 

[JFCJ]

H|Q,

[detroitdad]

Grand Victoria Primaries:

500x5 360x25 260x100 80x500 200x1 (1s as 1000s)

 

[maxim_666666]

I see, do you have a few extra chips of each denom in case one goes missing or gets damaged? You can't have 99 chips you know!

I hate these things ... 99 chips ...

 

[Chipnut]

Any chance you have any of the Terrible $500 chips available? I'm only looking for 3-5 of them.

UW85 has the chip Ebola

 

[maxim_666666]

UW85... Have you ever played with them?
it seems to me unlikely that the use of all chips ..

 

[UW85]

Played with all of them over time. Most of the MONSTER sets I used for a tournament I run for a buddy who lost his son to cancer. The first year we started with 80-some-odd players, using the 2005 WSOP replicas and the starting stacks were about $80,000 -- EACH person. It was awesome at the final table as players were betting into the millions. Love the big stacks. I tried to rotate the type of chips I used each year (aka excuse to spend $ on chips). However, at this point, for the past few years I use a custom set of ceramics I had made -- so slowly I've sold off a ton of the other chips/sets.

But yeah, all the sets I've owned I've played either during my monthly game or at various fund raisers I've hosted. Still have the addiction, but it's controlled now. For example I limited my purchase of the latest WSOP replicas (China Clays) to less than 2,000 chips!

So for you that's the same as not having really ordered any.
