Never heard of a poker chip larger than 50mm, interesting if they exist, but I don't think so

At some point it's just playing with dealer buttons.

 

[tabletalker7]

Only things in poker I heard of bigger than 50mm are dealer buttons and plaques

You don't need pictures!

36mm - fun for small hands and when your table is munchkin sized
39mm - if you can't find 43mm
43mm - the gold standard IMO and nothing else compares (let the flame war begin), hard to find storage
44mm - a weird cousin of 43mm, but you can get customs, so I can't knock it; even harder to find storage for
47mm/48mm - a cool size for things like bounties and champ chips
50mm - FH&C and Plain mold Paulsons and they are awesome as a gimmick chip

Anything large is a dealer button, right? I mean, nobody plays with 108mm ...

 

[Ben8257]

The standard Paulson Sizes are 36, 39, 43, 48, 50

But there are also 47 and 49mm paulsons

And the Largest chip I know of is 4 1/2"

Lol

Careful this could be blasphemy to @Seeking Alpha Social Club with his Winner Club Giants... pretty much the coolest set ever!

And what's wrong with 48mm as playable?

Hahaha, I love oversized chips! I use my T25 FH&Cs in my oversized RHC set. Wish I had what you have there Ben; such an awesome 50mm ... but what I was really hoping to do was draw you in with my 108mm comment; I know you have a playable set of those puppies ...

36, 39, 43, 48, 50, 60

No playable set brotha man... we only bought 25 of each. I was tempted... but other than yard poker when the hell would you ever use those things! Lol

Only old picture I can find. But they do live over my shoulder.

These look better suited for home defense than usable on a poker table . Love em.

Yard poker - ROFL - I love it!

Yard poker ......... Is that what we have reverted to now that lawn darts have gotten too violent?

Splash that pot and someone is getting knocked the **** out!

 

[Ben8257]

Not trying to derail but if anyone is interested in those Giant chips Gene at @ABC Gifts and Awards still has them available, also make awesome coasters for the man cave/poker room.

@RowlettTexasChipGuy have you found the picture you are looking for yet?

LOL!! Everybody has a preference. I'm just glad only me and @RainmanTrail had a taste for an all oversized set at that time the Winner Clubs were on the auction block or it would have been WAY out of my price range.

Also, if you prefer the chips on the right over the chips on the left (1st pic), or the chips in the middle over the outer chips (2nd pic) I suspect it's because you have small hands. Just sayin!!

Don’t forget Paulson’s forgettable 41mm Pro Series chips. I happen to really like my 500 piece set, although many don’t. Lightish chips only available with white spots in 4 colors and with pretty large inlays.

I have a few, those look awesome. But the ones that I do have, they just seem cheaper made than most Paulsons (like they will damage easier). Good point though. I will have to add those to the size pile next time! Lol

One day I'm gonna make my all plaque set and then all your puny little 36-50mm chips be damned!

Very cool! I recognize the green chip!

 

[TheTrout]

4.5 inch chip!! Tossing manhole covers around

 

[RowlettTexasChipGuy]

just to be clear......i seem to be getting lots of HATE(lol)

I am thinking 43 for lower denomination chips in my tourney set
46 for the higher denoms
and 50 for my bounty chips
