Ok e-train if pokerchips.com is out of you're budget this is a great place to start. Im assuming you wanted to spend around $175(+shipping) or less... thats what the all-in chips cost. I have some ideas in mind but I'd like your input.

1.) Do you want denominations?
2.) How many chips do you need? 300? 500? 650? 1000? Other? Even a close estimate helps.( If you don't know, tell me how many people you play with, what you buy-in for, and what denoms you use, also tourney or cash game or both)

If you answer these I can point you to 1-2 sets a lot cheaper than the all-ins or better quality.

I would rather not have denominations. I would like to change between using them for a Tournament and regular ring games. That way the reds can be $5 or $.25.

500 is what I am looking for. 200 red 150 green 100 Black 50 Yellow (or blue)


I appreciate all the help bonchkid.


Btw. I came across this site http://www.homepokertourney.com/. I don't know if you have been there but is had alot of reviews of Chips and all.

Ok generally
Pink/Orange=$.25
White/Blue= $1
Red= $5
Green= $25
Black= $100

If you wanted, you could go 250 Red 150 Green 100 Black for tournament or

250Blue 150 Red and 100pink/orange for cash games.

A more mixed set may be:
200red 100green 100 black 100 blue

I think you may like something like this. http://www.5stardeal.com/deals/10Exp...e=10-1090-500S

With 25% off of that, you're looking at a good price.

If you are going to get those chips, you might as well get the exact same chips from epokerchips.com, for $15 less.
