Saw another thread that sparked this feeling I've had for a while and wanted to vent / get thoughts from others:
I really hate the ceramics chips (cheap and ugly to me ) being used in the Casino Industry as I've noticed more and more casinos and card rooms in the industry are converting to them instead of Paulsons or other clays. Is there a known industry reason for this? Is it simply cost cutting benefits that dont impact preference from players on where they play based off of chip quality changes?
I've wondered if my perspective is right, if the casino industry is switching from clay to cheaper chipers, would it push Paulsons back into offering public chips for revenue? Wishful thinking I'm sure for various reasons, but I'm just guessing that they have far fewer chip orders in the casino industry now than they did 10+ years ago with how often it I see non clay chips in use.
To be humorous - I wonder if 10+ years from now if it will just become paper, cardboard or plastic chips if players dont have a preference to where it impacts choice in location for play, why would the casinos not continue to cut down on these chips cost? I'm surprised they havent cut down additionally in major noticeably areas... Do you really need a nice table for a table game with felt and cushion rails? Shoot, just get a foldable table from Walmart with a plastic table cloth birthday party casino theme (lol) instead. People wont care Do they even offer free drinks in casino these days in Vegas to any player or do you have to hit a certain rewards tier now after wagering x amount?
I mean, look how many players adopted double 0's on roulette... now I've heard the strip in Vegas is pretty much mostly TRIPLE 0's and people still play, how long until quad 0's?
Thanks for listening to me rant. lol
