whil i may not know who has the best chips, i know for a fact the palace in hayward has the dirtiest chips. good games, but i dont think they wash the chips.

i have to get up every once and a while to go wash my hands.

I never liked the coin inlay chips. I'm usually playing with the plastic ones. After reading the one posters story about food poisoning, I'm curious as to which surface is more likely to host bacteria/germs....

I don't have a specific casino to put above any others but i really like the California color schemes that deviate from the standard white red green black

Bally's AC, IMO, has the best. The graphics are perfect. The weight is perfect. They riffle easily. I love them. Unfortunately, the poker action at Bally's AC is strictly small limit these days. I miss the old days when we had good stud games in that room--and even LHE. That was the most FUN I've ever had playing poker.

Has anyone noticed that some of the $1 checks at Bellagio turn your fingers blue? That's annoying.

The checks at the Taj in AC and Harrah's in New Orleans are NASTY dirty. They need to wash that ****, for real.

I agree that Borgata chips are pretty but VERY annoying to acclimate to. The regulars always know when you're from another casino based on the way you handle your chips. They do look nice in stacks, though.

The Caesar's AC chips are nice--like Bally's, they have a nice weight and handle well.

Matsui chips are great... top of the line!

Canterbury Park. You have to feel those chips to appreciate how awesome they are. They're slick and smooth but have no problem being stacked 50 high.

warping is usually the issue with clays... that's why the stacks move. But when new, clays are the best, because they usually have a ridge pattern built into them that keep them fastened to each other.

New, clays they are the best.

While there's lots of nice chips in Vegas (Aria and the MGM are pretty, forgot what the material is like though), my favorite are the chips from the Vic in London. They're always clean, relatively new, and are quite heavy, which threw me off the first time. As far as I remember, all of the 25 and up chips also have coin inlays.



Dirtiest in my experience are probably Fox Poker Club in Soho, London. I hated Pechanga's chips in California too. Cheap, ugly, dirty chips and I hated the room: high rake, max buy-in of 50 BB on 1/2, only used $1 chips on the lower limit games (1/2)... quite fishy though.
