I'm the guy who yells "does he look like a man beaten by jacks?" I'm not usually winning a lot of money, but I can tell who's good and who stinks.

And I'm the guy he's saying that to.

Definitely Knish, right @MatB

The most iconic chip in the movie for sure, KGB $100.

Most iconic : yes, I vote for the TKGB $100.

but the thread is about my fovorite chip, so I go with the TKGB $500.

Knish here too…

Obvious answer is obvious, bear $100. Only reason I don't own a set is because it would be very hard for me to get 3 racks of high society in play.. maybe one day!

Maybe controversial but I'm not too much of a fan of these chips isolated. It's just the fact that they are from the movie that makes them epic.

And Knish. I love Mike, but he's got something to learn about BRM. (Or I need to learn something about shot taking at higher stakes... lol)

 

[Pinball]

Who am I? Pokerwise I wish I would be as solid as Knish, but I am more a gambler like Mike but at the end of the day I am a sore loser like Worm.

Probably a mix of Knish & Mikey…

And like everyone else, KGB $100 because it’s the most iconic, but as chips go, probably the Chesterfield $100.

My two card cappers.

When I first joined here I bought 3 racks of high society for quick freeze out single table turbo tourneys.

Mike
Teddy KGB $500

I'm either the dealer at the Taj (nitpicking over proper procedure and handling of chips) or Zagosh, being the schlubiest of the schlubs.

KGB 100 no doubt.

Perhaps I should have asked, "what's your 2nd favorite chip from the movie Rounders?"

KGB $100 is too iconic!

I have to be Fat Greggie …….I don’t see it personally but games do tend to fill up when I show up.

Have there been any group buys for either KGB or Chesterfield? I can't seem to find them, and I'd be surprised if there's nothing out there.

I think that’s probably because the main benefit of a group buy is to reduce the price per chip of a particular design. CPC doesn’t reduce their prices for stock designs like Rounders or Chesterfields based on quantity. If you buy 100 chips, it’s $245 per rack. If you buy 10,000 chips, it’s still $245 per rack.

Ahh! Okay thank you! That all makes sense now. I'm just surprised nobody has made a "commemorative tribute". But those ones at CPC look nice, only problem is they're $2.59/chip

A ton of commemorative / tribute sets have been made. $2.59 ea is probably a bit less than you'd pay if you were to design your own tribute set
