Does anyone like that purple chip?

I do like the purple, but wasn't sure until I had one. Note that I think the color on the 5star site is closer to real life than mine above. In my picture it's a lot more purple-y than in person. Actually, now that I look, I think the 5star photos are the closest color samples in comparison to our pictures.

I was concerned also that it could be too close to the black when playing, but the two are distinctive enough.

As an aside, when I played in the UB tournament in Aruba, the black and purple chips (100/500) were really hard to tell apart and to make matters worse, the demonination was only on one side of the chip. And if I remember correctly, there weren't edge spots either.

You really had to keep track of the pot in your head because it was too hard to "count" it when there was a mix of black and purple. I noticed a lot of people, myself included, taking the time to stack with the denoms facing up to avoid confusion.
