Best poker chips

In casinos poker is no longer played with chips made from 100% pure clay. Pure clay chips are very delicate and can break easily. In the 1950s clay chips were replaced by the composite clay chips where a few materials were added to the clay to make it more cost effective and to make it more durable.

The edge spots or the inserts are actually not painted but they are punched out and then replaced with the clay of desired colors after which they are molded and compressed to get the end product. In US most casinos, like iGame poker, use poker chips which are anywhere between 8 to 11g and rarely more than that. However, for home use the best poker chips which are used are significantly different from those which are used in casinos.

Home poker chips

The chips are used for poker in casinos and at home are quite different from each other. In casinos mostly composite clay chips are used for casinos which weigh from 8 to 11g but the home poker chips usually weigh more than that at around 13.5 g. Choosing home poker chips is not very difficult since they are available at almost all grocery shops, markets and even at airports.

Home poker chips are quite inexpensive and are usually made from plastic with a metal disc in the center in order to increase its weight. The type of poker chips to be purchased depends on the taste and the budget of the customer and while there are several inexpensive home poker chips available these are usually not of a very good quality.
