Dangerous concept at my house with regard to my poker chest.
I agree matching the big stack really changes the game. However, the players that want to will really voice up for it, and the host needs to know prohibit it for the health of the game (Even tho the host wants to put more chips into play, host must be disciplined lol.)NLHE home games that include the following are bad for the long-term health of your game:
If you have a long-running game with this format, it's only because you don't actually host frequent enough to notice players dropping out or your players actually prefer to play with larger blinds
- wide buy-in range
- a stack match option
- unlimited optional straddles
This is a great post! I can’t believe no one has liked it yet.Thread fluffing is worse than thread crapping.
HOW has this comment not gotten more likes?? Y'all are sleeping, this comment is great, if I didn't have tons of these already I would've already dibs'd it.Thread fluffing is worse than thread crapping.
Copying other people's posts and then pretending you didn't see theirs (which was right above yours).
Counterpoint, whenever someone sells a mint set of chips for more than they paid they should be forever branded as a flipper.It doesn’t bother me when people buy chips and never felt them. Nor plan to. Not why I’m into this hobby. But I get it.
Haha also doesn’t bother me. Why else are they keeping it mint. Bc they’re a collector.Counterpoint, whenever someone sells a mint set of chips for more than they paid they should be forever branded as a flipper.
That's just the natural progression of a lot of these type of things. I can't say all but a lot of the initial "collectors" did it NOT because of the potential value but for the actual passion for these things. But with anything else, once it becomes collectible the value only goes up. Think of sports cards or any other collectible. Kids didn't buy them because they wanted them to appreciate in value over time, but look at Jordan rookie cards nowadays.Haha also doesn’t bother me. Why else are they keeping it mint. Bc they’re a collector.
This hobby really shuns people who collect and may sell when they can get what it’s worth.
I absolutely came late into this hobby. Bc it was clearly a hobby with very little intention on collecting in benefit of one day it being valuable.
But that’s so damn common with almost everything else lol. Props to the community being as tight knit as it was in policing prices and traded fairly. But I also sense their plenty of hypocrites.
If thread crapping isnt allowed in classifieds then thread fluffing shouldnt be allowed either. Only posts related to buying or asking for more info about a sale should be allowed.Thread fluffing is worse than thread crapping.
It’s not the size of your set that matters it’s how you use it.By referring to your set micro stakes, one can forgo the required PCF minimum number of $5 racks (which is 4).
That’s true. My microstakes set only has 320 fives.By referring to your set micro stakes, one can forgo the required PCF minimum number of $5 racks (which is 4).
That’s true. My microstakes set only has 320 fives.
But here’s my own controversial option:
.25/.50 is not microstakes. That’s just home stakes. Microstakes is a game with chips smaller than a quarter.

The problem is that any home or casino plastic chips I've encountered thus far are super slippery, or in the case of Bud Jones, have a suction cup effect on each other when stacked. This is a recipe for the chips not stacking well.I played at Playground Poker and Casino Montreal this week.
Playground using BJ chips. Casino Montreal uses B&G.
There is nothing wrong with high end plastic chips, and I think I may even like them better.
At a minimum they seemed cleaner than clay chips, and they were old.
Casino Montreal had anniversary chips in play from 2010 - and they seemed as good as new.
I can't imagine buying clay chips if I ran a casino.
