Hey guys, new member from the Twins Cities. I just remodeled a poker table for the man cave and looking to setup some cash games with friend and shopping for some better chips to replace my cheap dice chips that came with my old poker set.

I'm leaning toward Apache Majestics after some research. I originally was leaning towards Milano, but the price seemed to jump from around 35c to 45c per chip and the Majestics aren't much more.

Anyways thanks for having me.

Welcome to the Forum! I lived across the street from Loring Park for about 3 years. Loved every minute of living there!

You got picks of the remodel? Showing off is half the fun!

And if you’re looking for a great option for a cash set, make sure you check these out before you buy anything.

You won’t find a better quality chip for a better price. Especially if you like the idea of something with some history. These chips were in a lot of winning pots!

I legally can’t like this post from across the border, but I will say the room looks great minus a few of those wall decorations

Those gold drink cups are a spectacular touch though given the decor

lol Thanks, I added those bronze cup holders and replaced the maroon felt with the purple speed cloth and I think it came out quite sharp. I've already played more hands on it than the person I inherited the table from.

Welcome to PCF,

I like your remodel poker table

If I was willing to spend just 50c/chip or less on a set of chips I would go here: https://www.pokerchipforum.com/thre...textured-no-mold-02-2024.114431/#post-2357959
And learn what I could about these chips. Best bang for the buck chip by far is right here. The greek mold hybrid chips are fantastic and they are customizable.

I’d have to agree! You did a great job keeping you lines true with the cloth. Not an easy task on an 8 sided table like that

Are you a home brewer? Or is Just The Tap a local brewery up there?

I'm a home brewer, my man cave has 3 taps and you can see some of my brewing equipment in the background. Just the tap is of my own creation

I don't, I'll be honest just an amateur player myself

Welcome neighbor, Maple Grove here! @Nanook ‘s recommendation above is good value and likely your best slightly-secure option over stock generic Milanos.

This looks like an amazing option, have to decide if I'm willing to wait that long on a set.

Welcome! And I wouldn't be too concerned with wait times... I, too, jumped head first with a set and regretted it - bought and returned NexGens, China Clays. Take your time and save yourself buyer's remorse!
