How useful is a 500 poker chip set gonna be in college?

[Non_Comformist]

Poker chips are useful in life. Every man should have a set, regardless if he uses them or not.

1) you're getting ripped off, go to costco
2) use 'em to hold tournys in your dorm/apartment

Don't forget: The guy who hosts the game, and provides chips, cards, food and bev, GETS TO TAKE THE RAKE!

Take $2/hand, and you'll have all the money by the end of the evening.

And to answer Clayton, I'd keep the chips for sure. Get some custom labels made for them, and like daryn said, there's probably a nice advantage to being the one in charge of the game at college...

Search the archives, or do a search for chip labels on eBay. There are some sellers on there who sell some reasonably priced labels, although I can't vouch for the quality of all of them.

[ClaytonN]

What if I already have labels on mine?

They look like this:



Still possible?

[ClaytonN]

Nevermind, I'm gonna answer my own question. Apparantly you can get a custom design in the center of that chip, I believe...

I used to work at a store that sold chips like this. For custom hot stamp center designs, we could special order them. The problem was, the company wouldn't do this on chips already purchased. You had to get the chips and the stamping at the same time.
