[Chippy McChiperson]

Couldn’t get anything going, and busted out at the 1k/2k level when I was down to 3 big bets (to the guy with the big stack who asked me “what’s a bring in?“ before the tourney started lol). Fortunately I made my buy-in back + $90 at the blackjack table

Poker & palomas - yum

 

[k9dr]

I have a bigger stack, unfortunately I had to rebuy - tequila & poker may not mix well

 

[k9dr]

… and then I doubled up next hand maybe tequila is OK after all

 

[k9dr]

… and the I ran JJ into 88 - 7,9,10 flop - POT - turn A - check - river 8 gg

 

[sheikh617]

In for three, at about $1100. Two hours of play, ran very well and played well too. First session here since March of 2020. God I love the Encore.

JJ > 88 on that board. Maybe take it easy on the tequila at the table

Sold this set to a friend. Took him about 5 years to finally get it into play. We did a $1/$2 game during the Chargers game. It was very quiet after the game...

Matsui Kings Club CIC.

 

[chipchipchip]

Wheee!!!! Just after a 700+ BB pot in a local 1/1 game. A good down payment on my new CPC set that I’m working on.

*edit to add I’m mostly posting to get updates when this thread is updated. I love seeing everyone else’s setups.

Here's a picture from my last game earlier this month. The pokerchips are Clays, German Bullets Playing Cards "Tony", denominations from 1 to 1.000 whereas we don't play with the 1s.

Stack during first break at the weekly casino tourney. Busted about 8 hands into level 6.

Nice

No offense, but pretty sure those are not actual compressed clay chips. They look like ceramics or plastic.

 

[allforcharity]

Ceramics, I'm guessing.

Hmm in the shop they are declared as clay chips (https://bulletscards.de/products/pokerkoffer-mit-500-designer-clay-pokerchips-mit-werten). They are very heavy, about 14g.

I am pretty sure they are no ceramics. A few days ago I had some Nevada Jacks in hand, they seem slimmer and not that heavy.

 

[allforcharity]

14g has got to be slugged plastic.

 

[SmokingAces]

Sorry for the mistake, the chips actually weigh 12g not 14g...

Everything about that link suggests slugged plastic.

• Aluminum case
• Cards
• Dice
• Rules on how to play hold'em. I'd bet $100 that their hand ranks use the Royal Flush as the best hand, instead of just Straight Flush that a Royal is.
• A "10" chip - which tells me they don't really know how chips work efficiently.
• Priced at less than 40¢ a chip, assuming the case, dice, and cards are free - which they aren't, so the price per chip is probably closer to 25¢ - the price point expected for stylish plastic chips.

Still, a nice looking plastic chip. It's far better than dice chips. It's just a shady dealer selling something as "clay" when it is not.

Thanks! I'm still at the beginning, so this was very helpful!
And your're right, they are far better than dice chips. That's why I bought them in the first place.
My next set will probably be ceramics - but not before seeing some in real. That's another point I just learned: Buy a sample set.

Sorry to break this to you, but lots of retailers sell plastic and ceramic chips and call them clay. There's even a brand of chips called Claysmith that sells slugged plastic and china clay chips only. Many people are fooled by this and swear that their Milano line are compressed clay, but they are not. The only brand new clay chips today that are available to the consumer are Classic Poker Chips.
