Types of Pocker Chips
There are a few different types of pocker chips in circulation, that can be found from casinos, to homes, and almost anywhere else you might find a game of pocker being played. www.pockerroom.com
Most of the less expensive chip sets to be found and purchased in your local shop are basic moulded plastic, and many of these sets are mass produced in the far east, (my own set were made in China) . If you are looking for a slightly more expensive and higher quality of chip then, also commonly found are ’composite’ chips. These pocker chips are usually a mixture of plastic and clay and often have a metal disc inserted during production to give the chip a little extra weight.
Predominantly used by casinos as opposed to home games are another higher quality chip made from ceramic, these have a good, weighted feel, and imbuing the pocker chips with designs is a simpler task with this variety. Lastly, the most expensive chips to produce and widely considered to be the best quality, are clay chips. These are the chips that would be gracing the felt if you were to enter the World Series of pocker for example, or many of the other major pocker tournaments held in Las Vegas.
I myself, have one of the cheaper plastic sets of pocker chips because for me they serve the same purpose as any other, and aside from this, I play most of my pocker online and in other establishments.
If however, you play pocker home games often, or simply wish to have a quality set of pocker chips close to hand, then my recommendation would have to be either the clay, or ceramic sets, both of which are of an excellent quality. www.pockerroom.com
