I'm designing a set of customized poker chips and I thought I'd post 'em here to get the opinions of the Tiki world. Any comments, critique, or ideas are appreciated...

P puzzlemonkey Member Columbus, OH - Home of the Kahiki! Joined: Mar 04, 2005 Posts: 8	P puzzlemonkey Posted posted on Sat, Mar 5, 2005 11:03 AM Yes, they'll be Chipcos. The chips will be pretty much as you see them--I made a version with denominations, but people didn't like them all that well (myself included). I'd be happy to let others in on the chip purchase, but I'm making them for myself, not to go into business, so I won't be making extra sets and reselling them (unless I'm really close to a price break point :D If you're interested, send me a PM and we can talk.

Joined: Mar 04, 2005 Posts: 8	P puzzlemonkey Posted posted on Tue, Mar 8, 2005 12:19 PM These'll be the real things, so I believe they should be more like 10-10.5g. If you're interested in the details of the chips themselves, Chipco can tell you all about 'em.

The chips are cool just the same. Stick around and get to know some of us, if you are inclined to do so.

J johntiki Member MD Joined: Mar 31, 2002 Posts: 1528	J johntiki Posted posted on Fri, Apr 15, 2005 11:56 AM These chips are so cool I actually want to get off my lazy ass and finally learn how to play poker... I'm always hated math and anything that involves numbers doesn't seem like fun and scares me away. For some bizarre reason I'm afraid while playing I might be required to add up the numbers on the cards in my hand... and I'd look like a complete idiot using my fingers to count. :)

My husband loves poker and wants me to learn, but I feel the same way. I'm sure I'd love it, especially if I could use some sweet poker chips like these! Are you offering sets for sale at all, puzzlemonkey?

E ePokerDeals Member Joined: Nov 12, 2005 Posts: 1	E ePokerDeals Posted posted on Sat, Nov 12, 2005 11:18 AM Hello Tiki Forum Members, We are currently running an ad on your forums for the new Tiki Kings Poker Chips. I have read this thread, and some posters are correct, these chips are not inexpensive! However, these are quality chips, comparable to a chipco chip, or a Nevada Jacks Chip. They are made of a ceramic material and look and feel fabulous in person. They are priced right in line with similar quality chips. We would like to extend a special offer to TIKIROOM members who would like to purchase either a 300 or 500 piece set of these chips. We will take $30 off the price for a 300 set and $45 off the price of a 500 piece set. To get this exclusive offer, please email [email protected] and identify yourself as a tikiroom forum member wanting the discount. They will instruct you on how to proceed. I must say, the tiki texas holdem table I saw on this forum looks great!!!! Thanks! [ Edited by: ePokerDeals 2005-11-12 11:27 ] [ Edited by: ePokerDeals 2005-11-12 11:30 ]
