Bounties: Standard Vs Oversized / Plaques (1 Viewer)

[cahrarar]

Hi everybody,

Just getting a feel: for utility chips such as bounties, etc. - do you prefer using standard sized chips (compared to the rest of your set, in my case 39mm), or oversized or even plaques?

I will be ordering a semi-custom DDLM bounty chip from BRPoker and am deciding between a standard 39mm black bounty chip vs a plaque. The plaque would be more than $4 more for each, but I'll only be getting 20, so wouldn't be awful, and I think it could be fun to accumulate plaques throughout the night more so than regular chips.

Thoughts?

I used their 47mm for mine

I have octagonal, 47mm, and 51mm for my bounty chips. Having something non-standard vs the rest of the set so they stick out especially for the all-in where you just chuck that into the middle!

I prefer to use unique or oversized items as non-denomination markers such as Bounty or Re-Buy. Most of the designs are 43mm, 46mm, or 47mm round chips or 47mm octagon chips (and typically using colors not found in the denominated tournament chips). Some are generic designs, allowing them to be used with multiple sets.

Not being 39mm and using unique colors, they tend to stand out more and are less likely to be accidentally mixed in with tournament chips.

We use both but the $5 plaques are the most fun to take off your opponents…

I have a 36mm Horseshoe Cleveland tourney set, and use 39mm Horseshoe Cleveland cash chips for the bounties in tournaments.

I like oversized in general for special chips so they don’t get easily mixed in, though the plaques listed above are also pretty cool.
