Just curious if anyone has thought about putting together a group buy for "Tilt" replica chips?

There was a pretty good shot of the $10,000 chip in last weeks episode. Looked like a Paulson chip.

I'm pretty sure they're not Paulson, because I saw that "pre-show" they had. They talked a lot about the chips, and I can't remember if they said who makes them. But for some reason, I'm thinking Blue Chip, and definately not Paulson.

Anyway, from what I remember, the mold has a ring of "asterisk" shapes around the outer ring. Anyone have an idea?

I looked at the chip frame by frame on my Tivo and it was hard to tell what they were. However, they did not appear to be Paulson. I agree that they may be Blue Chip, but there just was not a clear image of the mold.

Tilt Chips are Blue Chip Chips.

I am 99% sure of this

I didn't tape this show cause I was traveling. I thought from the previous shows that the chips were definitely Blue Chip clays, from the colors and edge spots.

And after seeing (briefly) the closeup of the $10,000 chip on the last show, it looked exactly like the Blue Chip 5 Flames (some call is Seashells) mold.

Do you ever post a positive/constructive response to anything?

I just spent four days at the Sahara. I brought home a half dozen chips. The ones I took have the ring of asterisks. A buddy and I were comparing chips at the casino and he had some H/C's with the same image. The H/C's appeared to be much older. They might have swith manufacturer. There is nothing to indicate manufacturer though like the Palms i got have BG on them.
Oh yeah, something I found interesting is that the Sahara chips (w/Asterisks) have brass flakes in the clay like, I think, pokerchips.com.

Yea I think they are made by Blue Chip. I paused Tivo and saw the asterisk mold on the 10000 chip.

So, back on topic, what's the interest on these Tilt chips? I think they look pretty good.

Its 100% Blue Chip seashell mold. I paused dead on the chip with my tivo. Just wish my Tivo was hacked so I could home network to my PC to post pics.

Nice, it'd be cool to see the whole set. I watched the first episode and they looked like nice chips.

Ask Italianstang what he thinks of ordering from Blue Chip.

They are definitely blue chip. In fact, the edge spot design is a standard combo. You can order chips that are blank with the same edge spots for $ .55 a piece.

Does "Blue Chip" have a web site?

Sorry,
Realizing that last poast was horrible. I found these chips through a search before they were on Tilt. I had planned to order them(and would have right there if they took Credit cards). For a description of some of the problems in dealing with blue chip, check out this thread:

http://www.texasholdem-poker.com/forum/phpbb/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=7473&postdays=0&postorder=asc&high light=blank&start=30

Currently,

I finally recieved a call that they had the stock in to complete my order last saturday. With the introduction of some of the nicer low cost alternatives, I'm wondering if I realy want to spend 2.5 times more or these chips.
