Please be careful with "double duty" chips. I have to contemplate the chance that a black ten cents chip or a green twenty-five cent chip goes missing one game and reappears sometime latter as a hundred dollar chip or a twenty-five dollar chip.

I have seen that happen in a game where the tournament chips match the cash game chips. And seen generic "dice" chips brought into a game, one or two a game, until the problem grew large enough that the high value chips didn't fit into the case anymore. These are true home games where everyone knew each other - yet even so, some folks decided to cheat the host.

I encourage you to be careful. You could recover the additional expense for dedicated chips for each value by avoiding a handful of problems.

Yes , I definitely am aware, but the pool will differ greatly between .10/.25 & 1/2, 2/5 players..higher games will have a zero tolerance...ANY missing chips = no game till found/returned.

FWIW, not dice chips and not popular..I will post pics if I can learn how

For quarters, I like getting a couple of rolls of quarters and using them in addition to my chips. Don't need to worry about the "double duty" aspects or about them walking away, and they are easily replaceable.

Not sure if it is better to start a new thread, but I guess I will try here.

I am thinking about replacing my Milano set, which I have had for about ten years. I still love the set, but we have recently noticed two problems:

1. the chips are chipping away and leave bits all over the table by the end of the night

2. they smell a bit like crayons

These issues may have always been there, but if it is just a matter of them being old, I would just by the same chips, as I don't see anything else I like.

I do like having the $0.25 chips. Any suggestions?

If you're looking for similar priced chips, the Majestics have been rated pretty high among all the different forums. I went the cheaper route and got the Monte Carlos but if you're coming from Milanos you'd probably want to upgrade.

What's your budget? BRPro has many semi customizable chips, for a bit more you could get full customs.

Apache poker chips has a china clay called The Bank. They don't have dollar or cent signs and they also have a .25 chip. Pretty versatile options
