subject: 200 11.5g Dice Striped Poker Chips With Clear Cover Aluminum Case Review [print this page] Every month my friends and I rotate where we play our poker games. When this was first decided, all 18 of us put our names in a hat and drew to see when we would be the host. Luckily I was #17 so I had plenty of time to figure out what the heck I was going to do. You know, make space, get poker chips, tables, or anything else I needed to make it comfortable for everyone. It's how I found the 200 11.5g Dice Striped Poker Chips With Clear Cover Aluminum Case.
Now, I wasn't necessarily the center of our group, but I grew up with these guys and we've spent time together over the years. However, when it comes to poker I am never in the money when we play tournaments. In fact, I believe we are about to hit 3 years worth of playing and I haven't even come in 4th during this time. It's quite annoying now that I really think about it.
Anyways, when you don't excel in one area you find something else that will make an impact. In this case I wanted to provide everyone with the best place to play poker. So I went out on the internet in search for items that would make a statement when you see them. Once I found the 200 11.5g Dice Striped Poker Chips With Clear Cover Aluminum Case I knew what accolades I was going to receive.
When you see this for yourself it definitely has an appealing look. The case itself is made from aircraft aluminum and is as lightweight as can be. Probably the coolest part is you can see through the top and look at what is inside. Oh, and if you're accident-prone the glass is scratch-resistant.
In all there are 5 dice, 2 decks of cards and 200 chips all within this tiny aluminum case. It's durable and when you set it down on the table everyone will be quite taken with the appearance. I purchased 2 poker tables as well, a dealer button, small and big blind button, and a few other things to make the game more authentic.
No one else had anything like this, so when it was my turn to host the party everyone was taken back by it all. Probably the most entertaining comment came from my buddy Jason who said; "Why the hell didn't you tell use your house was decked out with a poker atmosphere? We would have just come to your house every week."
Needless to say I am the host, and I get $1 per hand as a fee. This pays for the chips, drinks, electric, new accessories, and whatever else I see fit. In the end, I still haven't made money playing in any of these games. However, I am enjoying the extra $200 I get every week to host the party. All it took was taking a different route to creating extra income.
