Sometimes
Okay, 99.9%. 1% look good. The rest are self-indulgent, "look at me" moments by casinos who don't understand that what we want to look at are the chippies!

Yes, but in reference to what? none of these chips have oversized inlays...Oversized inlays are a crime against the poker chip community.
The ceramics?Yes, but in reference to what? none of these chips have oversized inlays...

I am out of town until Wednesday. I can post more on Thursday.Hey Jim @TheChipRoom , any chance you could give us a better pic on the chips. It's a dark pic and hard to figure out the colors on the chips, thanks
Can the IHC chips be inlay removed and relabeled or are they oversized inlays? I can't tell real well from the picture.

All I see are oversized cali fivers
No, yellow Cali $5 alwaysI have sworn off these sales. I usually check out at about 45 seconds in, and everything I want sold out at 40 seconds, and I'm too old for that shit.
So anyway, I'm building this scrub micro Cali cash set, almost done except for some sexy @Gear labels:

And I have no $5 chip yet. So...

Are we all in agreement that the white chip would make the better $5? Given the yellow edgespots in the $1, that's where I'm leaning.
That's not terribly different than T25 in a T10k stack. The T100 being the next chip means the T50 will get much less use before racing them off is about all.Argh, so many great temptations in this sale!
Does a T50 make any sense in a T20K starting stack tournament, say starting at 50/50?
@TheChipRoom I know you don't give chip counts out pre-sales, but you have given indications in the past of how hard it was going to be to get chips.
On a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the most difficult (and lightning fast ninja clicking required), how hard do you think it will be for someone to put together a tournament set that includes T50 though T5000s?
Either way, thanks again for bringing great chips to the community!
Thanks

Original Jacks release had no pre made setsYou know, or you guess?
We all know the sales go quick, but there is a big difference between a 5 second and a 45 second sell out.
The fact that no sets have been put together in advance should probably be the indicator I look at.. in the past when at least a few sets could be put together they have been.
Just being funny. There could be 15000 chips, there could be 150000. Some of us saw the Jacks numbers, but they still have not officially been released, I think.You know, or you guess?
Yeah, but that sale had a lot of inventory held back as it was marketed as a presale.Original Jacks release had no pre made sets

Just try to get the big demons first. If you’re lucky enough to get them, then go back and get the workhorse chips. It that simple, right?You know, or you guess?

Yeah, I'm thinking that trying to get both of the high denom won't work for a single person. If you try to put both into the cart and then buy you'll likely be too slow, and if you try to do two quick transactions you'll likely be too slow.Just try to get the big demons first.

If you want to believe he’s somehow got 5,000 of those big chips to sell to everybody who wants them, do the math on how tournament sets are put together.
By my math, those things are selling out fast.
In trying to guess how many of each denom exist, it would help to know what these chips were used for. For some reason, I was thinking this was originally a tournament set. Like maybe Full Tilt did a live series. But the cash denoms belie that.. "No cash value" chips were the tournament standard when Full Tilt existed, right? So these are actually cash chips? Full Tilt certainly wasn't running a shitload of cash tables anywhere. Maybe promotional chips, for home use, right? But I can't buy that either, because nobody was cranking out oversized paulsons for home use ever (at least not until recently.) So that's a mystery.Yeah, I'm thinking that trying to get both of the high denom won't work for a single person.

This may be for the best, not sure I need to buy more chips. Likely will still try.
I'm sure there will be lots of the $500 and below as most people on this site can't stand the sight of RHCs.
