Question?

[TonyS0pran0]

I am looking for a unique card guard and have searched everything I can possibly think of through google and ebay. I don't want any of those "big slick" or whatever garbage ones. I don't like dealerbuttons.com selection either. Any help would be greatly appreciated....

I've always found the top chip on my stack to work extremely well. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

I use a collectable Phil Helmuth chip: http://www.5stardeal.com/deals/10Expand.asp?ProductCode=10-777PH

No table is complete w/o Phil. Remember: If there was no such thing as luck, he'd win every time! /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Personally I dont think people should have card guards unless its some kind of good luck charm they have. Why not just use a chip from your stack if you need a card guard? I say find something that actually has some kind of meaning, or some little good luck charm of yours, or else dont have one at all.

It's always a good conversation starter.

One problem with this is when you're all-in. Either you forget to include/count the chip on your cards, or your cards have no protector just when you need it most.

[wingsfan]

I second that. Use something personal. It's just a bauble anyway.

Nice chips! I'm assuming by the mold and texture that they're real clay. Where did you get them? If you got them locally I'd love to know!

I've been toying with the idea of making my own (possibly more for resale if there's a market). Turned wooden base with a cabachon in the center (see here (http://www.woodturnerscatalog.com/catalog/decorative_mat.html) for examples of cabachons).

[obeythekitten]

personally ive always thought that using anything other than one of your high denomination chips to put on your cards is stupid

[warewulf]

A $5 Vegas slot chip works well. Play until you win a decent jackpot and then keep one of the chips.

I use an old silver dollar. It was obviously a pocket "good luck" piece as it's worn to the point where the date is gone.

I've found that having your opponents thinking you believe in "luck" to be a not entirely undesirable thing.

I have a "Lucky Chip" that I bought on ebay.

I like it because it is super cheesy and it makes me look like a dork who relys on luck.

One side has a royal flush, some dice and a roulette wheel. The other side has 7 different luck symbols: 777, a 4 leaf clover, a horseshoe, an elephant's head, a leprechaun and a couple ohters.

It is super dorky, but I love it.

Why is there a tool like you in every forum? Last time I checked a web forum was for posting questions and a public place. I bet your a 32 year old living at home in your mothers basement who delivers pizza at night waiting for his "big break".... Get a life!!
