Which Size Plaque (1 Viewer)

[detroitdad]

I have it narrowed down to two sizes. I have a preferred choice (my son has the opposite choice). I just want to see what you guys say.

Oh, and last Plaque thread I promise, lol.............well, maybe.



A.

B.

I think a lot depends on the design, but right now if I had to choose I'm picking A. Go big or go home and plaques that are the highest denominations should stand out. Similar to oversized chips imo.

 

[mipevi]

I prefer a smaller size, they're more playable.

This is my thought process

You must be proud to have a genius for a son

Smaller plaque. Its already substantially larger than the chips. Agree with others that it seems more playable.

 

[mike32]

I'd go with the smaller one.

 

[LabMonkey]

Smaller plague looks like the proper scale with the chips.

 

[links_slayer]

smaller, especially if it's going to be the only plaque.

 

[BGinGA]

I like the 68mm baby plaques. Small, playable, yet still very substantial (about 40 grams jammed into a small footprint).

 

[Mental Nomad]

Did you check how they fit into whatever storage/container/display they're going into?

 

[spikeithard]

not all things in life are 'bigger the better' but for plaques, I like this mantra

 

[ParrotheadMZ]

Smaller is better IMO ..... Both may be to big. BGinGA nailed it. My 2c

 

[mipevi]

I voted small, but really in this case the difference isn't huge. Your large size is actually very close to my 25k plaques, which I think are just about the max size while still playable (I do love those little 10k's though), you can't really go wrong either way IMO.

 

[DrStrange]

I fall into the bigger is better camp - but none of my set have plaques so maybe they "could" be too big.

Naw -=- DrStrange

I also ordered the 68 mm plaque as part of the sample set. Not something I'm interested in. Way to small imo.

There are solid arguments for both sizes, lol.

 

[ssanel54]

Either will work fine, and both will make a statement. I find the smaller ones easier to store.

 

[Poker Zombie]

Storage would be the biggest concern for me. Everything else is trivial.

 

[detroitdad]

I'm not worried about storage. Not sure what I will do at this point. We'll figure something out.

Let's say your group has a huge blowout game one night (PCF meetup maybe ) and you get stacks of plaques and chips into play. A player may decide to stack chips on top of his stack of plaques. Is the smaller one big enough to stack chips on top of it?

Finally, while I cannot condone the way the poker scene was handled for most players the card game in Casino Royale is the only place any of them would have ever seen a plaque in play. I would mimic the size they went with:

That's a beautiful set, Mipevi!

That's a beautiful set, Mipevi!

Thanks! :

I haven't really posted any pr0nage on PCF yet, but I'll get around to it...

 

[ssanel54]

BTW - the Tropicana plaque is mine. I had those made up last year. I'm curious if it is defective, or if it was just an extra laying around at OWPS.

 

[detroitdad]

I've been carrying both plaques around, fondling them and such. I think I'm going with the smaller of the two.

Thanks for all your guys participation in the poll and discussion.

Time to contact J5.
