blonde poker forum

Hey Blondites how's it going ?  I am looking to buy a quality set of poker chips either 500 or a 1000 anyone got any suggestions ? Don't mind paying abit extra for better quality. Thanks in advance. Dave

I got mine from http://www.thesportshq.co.uk/Products.asp?CategoryID=87

steal them from your local card room.

1 by 1?  Bit like the Great Esacape :D

yeh, start with the 50 chips and work your way up.

I'm always amazed at how easy it would be to "lift" chips from Venues, they leave trays of them laying around. In fact, on reflection, I imagine it must happen a lot.

I always make a point of adding up the Chips on a Final Table to see if they tally with the correct amount, (allowing for colouring up), & I've three times refused to allow a final Table to start when the chips did not tally.

So i'm guessing that as you've only made one final table in the last 6 months that you were doing the blonde updates on the other two occassions?  ;goodvevil;

;)

One in 6 months? You wish........Dozens, more like. Well, nearly dozens.

My apologies - i stand corrected.

Once in a dozen months - well nearly a dozen months.........

rotflmfao rotflmfao

It's just too easy - he's not even a moving target!!

Closer.....

As it happens, I looked myself up on the Hendon Mob Database this morning, my ego needed stroking......They list 13 Festival cashes for me at Luton in 3 years, out of about 30 odd in total, & my only two "Official" wins were at Luton. And, to be fair, I never "really" won either of them, business was done in both cases.

For me, it's Lucky Luton!

So Does anyone know where i can get a decent set from ? Without stealing  :D :D

The mobs chips are very good quality.

right, i've done loads of searching on the internet for a decent set of chips and for europe, there is hardly any on offer, all the ones shown in the links are plastic 13g chips. the best place in the uk to buy chips (good chips, casino quality chips) is http://poker.marlowcasinochips.com/ (http://poker.marlowcasinochips.com/)

they stock paulsons, tr kings, chipcos amoungst many others. They do come at a price and you won't be able to beat the price by buying in the US and shipping to the uk. Trust me, i've tried. I suggest you buy samples of the chips you like the look of and see which one you want to buy.

i've got samples of loads of chips but never bought any from marlow. I got involved with a group buy on another forum. A good option if you don't mind waiting a while for the chips. they can get very cheap to.

got any questions please ask, i probably know more about poker chips than actually playing poker lol

Try ebay Casino-Poker chips
500 11.5g dice chips for around £25
Paulson and other types as well for quite a bit more

like all things on ebay, be careful. with poker chips they wil advertise as 'casino quality' and as 'paulsons' but are not near a good quality chip. i've rarely found any good chips on ebay, but there are occasionally some gems

Yeah thats true .  stick with the main stores, all the shops mentioned on this thread, marlowchips, premierchips and hendonmob sell on ebay and you can get a good price if bidding.

how much money are you looking to spend? there are soo many options out there ranging from 1 or 2p a chip to £1-£2 per chips. all depends on your budget and how many chips you need
