Title: DTD chips Post by: PocketLady on January 30, 2008, 12:56:56 PM Random question but can anyone tell me what the tournament chips at DTD are made of? Thanks a lot guys
Title: Re: DTD chips Post by: kenjude on January 30, 2008, 01:28:01 PM I haven't been there but some of the photos in the live update from the January £500 show signs of the chips having a telltale white edging around the perimeter of each face. So I would guess at ceramics, Chipco or similar?
I believe Chipco started some years ago deliberately leaving a white ring round the edge of new chips and not pushing the design right to the edge. This is because the white underneath will start to show after much repeated use - Chipco chips are sligthly concave so most chip to chip contact is around the rim when they are stacked and this is where you get most signs of wear. Of course I might be completely wrong! Title: Re: DTD chips Post by: Horneris on January 30, 2008, 02:12:19 PM The Chips are amazing imo.
Best ive ever used, anywhere. Title: Re: DTD chips Post by: PocketLady on January 30, 2008, 02:18:26 PM Lol, yep, definitely! That's why I asked, I want some!! Thanks kenjude, I had a look on the Chipco website and it looks like that's them.
Title: Re: DTD chips Post by: kenjude on January 30, 2008, 02:36:11 PM If they are Chipcos then marlowcasinochips.co.uk are the sellers in the UK for the "home" models of Chipcos. They also sell via Ebay. Any search for chipco chips on Ebay will find their entries, and you can specifiy what breakdown of chips you want in a set.
I have a set of 500 which we use for our home game sit n goes. Treated myself out of winnings ayear ago as I wanted a nice set. They don't do anything that a £20 set from Asda can't do, but they do feel nice. Cheap they aren't though!

Thanks kenjude, I had a look on the Chipco website and it looks like that's them. Hi , our chips are not Chipco , they are supplied by a French company Bourgogne et Grasset and were very expensive . They only supply licensed premises and we could have got both our tournament and cash chips a lot cheaper buy we didn't want to compromise the Dusk Till Dawn experience.
