The radiant red 3d38 T5 is underrated here. Love it.

....If you hate lead and shaped inlays. LOL

LOL indeed. Just meant colorwise, but obviously the real shaped inlays are much nicer!

....If you hate lead and shaped inlays. LOL

fun fact: the blue RPC $1 weighs 1/2 g more per chip than the Lakeshore $1..
I'm pretty sure neither have lead in them

Well alrighty then.

 

[softchewy]

Well alrighty then.

yeah, I think alot of people think every older chip is leaded, but they really aren't.
lead content varied greatly. Like the SCV vs LCV Empress $100

 

[JeepologyOffroad]

Imo it’s not about weight. It’s that feel of the older chips. Completely different. Weights always vary even among known leaded chips

Has a lot to do with the textured and shaped inlay as well, imo

 

[ReallyGoodUsername]

Shaped > .5g but… I may be biased

 

[Sprouty]

Plus lead chips taste better.

Don't steal my line!

Clay formula has definitely changed. It’s also amazing how LCV vs SCV will both sound and shuffle differently with the heavier texture on LCV, and shaped inlays also change the feel and sound of the chips a ton.

12/17/21, the day I learned that my Lakeshores were just run-of-the-mill unleaded chips. It's like piss in my cornflakes.
With time, I'll get over it. Maybe.

Agreed on some chips, there are alot of factors in the "feel" obviously, but part of that buttery feel may actually be due to the lead content.
IMO, Lakeshore $1s don't feel any different than a similar weighted newer THC Paulson.
Now I grab a PCA (in the same condition) and you can feel the difference (but honestly, it is a Very slight difference).
I prefer shaped and textured in general.

what no FHC closeups?

 

[bergs]

"Fakeshores", lol. Sadly, stolen from someone else. Wish I was that original.

 

[The Nuts]

Does paulson still make shaped inlays? If so, why no shaped inlays?!

Can’t remember who first coined “fakeshore” but it’s pretty good.

Had a Lake Elsinore tribute mock-up that I kept calling Fake Elsinore

They do not

 

[The Nuts]

They do not

excuse me while I go caress my HP set.

 

[davislane]

Disappointed there's no chip with Hawaii Flower as a base

Or Indian blue

Can I ask why you guys didnt do a T1 chip for each of the tournament sets? Seems like that would have given you two more chips to mix and match throughout, and would have made both tourney sets versatile for a cash game. Plus mixed game tourneys!
