When it comes to my poker supplies, I tend to buy replacements and upgrades quite often. There are just so many different options when it comes to cards, poker chips, poker chip cases and anything poker related really. Recently it was time for me to change out my poker chips. My last set was a clay composite poker chip. I liked them alright but always wanted to own some full clay poker chips, like the ones you find in the casino. I decided it was time to splurge on my poker chips, so I went with some Paulson Tophat full clay poker chips. They are quite pricey, but I’ve always wanted some. I have to say, they definitely live up to their name and price. These poker chips emulate casino poker chips. They feel and sound like the real thing. These are some of the best poker chips on the market and I couldn’t be happier. Clay poker chips are the way to go.

If you have been hosting a regular game for a while it may be time for a new set of poker chips. Even if the old chips are doing just fine, you and your players will appreciate the fresh new poker chips. Many options are available in today’s poker chip market.

A nice touch for a unique poker chip set is to customize the chips in a way that makes them one of a kind. This can be accomplished in one of two basic ways. The first way is with hot stamping. This method allows for a single color customization by stamping a custom design into each poker chip. However, you can stamp each side of the poker chips with a different design. For example, a custom logo on one side of each chip and a denomination on the other side of each chip.

The other method of poker chip customization is labels. Labels offer endless color options and more intricate designs. Therefore if you have a multi color logo and you want to put it on a poker chip without sacrificing any of the colors, custom labeled poker chips will be the best solution.

Are you slightly rusty on your blackjack skills and techniques? Have you ever seen those Vegas blackjack touch screen games? You play these just like table blackjack, minus the dealer.

This product is similar to playing the casino games, but you get the advantage of getting to practice, but aren’t out large amounts of cash if you don’t do so well. You can purchase one for under $100.00 and the dimensions are 7 x 9 x 8, which means it is the perfect size to take along and play anywhere you go.

Blackjack is Fun for Everyone-

I love to play blackjack! The rules are so simple it is easy to teach the game to little kids. The goal is to get as close to 21 without going over and to beat the dealer. If you have children or are active in group activities for kids this is a great way to help them with their counting skills and they will have fun at the same time. I remember when I was little and my older brother and I would play blackjack with matches and sometimes even pennies, it was a blast.

Now days you can purchase blackjack accessories like they use in the casinos. This adds a different level to the game; it makes you feel like a pro. You can use a dealing shoe, discard holder, plastic cards, and even real poker chips to spice up your game. How fun is that?!
