Yeah, most people like the shaped inlays (myself included). The only problem that might come up is that the inlay is going to be the smallest size, so shaping them might make them look tiny. I think most shaped inlays are the 2nd size (in between the small and the Grand). But I'm sure Ten will make sure it looks good before pulling the trigger. As it stands, I'm not even expecting shaped inlays because I get the feeling Paulson won't allow it, but that's just speculation on my part.

I don't know if anyone else has run across this information, but it seems there is a third set of new Paulson home chips available out there. I found this set reviewed on PokerChipReviews.com and supposedly they are available through ApachePokerChips.com.

There also seems to be something very interesting about them which may strongly influence our buy. Rumor had it that Paulson wouldn't allow larger inserts on their home chips, but as you can see these are using grand sized inserts. Maybe there is still a chance for our varied insert shapes, although I must admit I think I am starting to really like the small inlay. Of course the small inlay would have to be on a chip with the small inlay space.

Also they have different edge spots. I don’t think I like the edge spots on this new set any better than what we are already looking at, but it might open up some more possibilities. I might like to see fewer sets of edge spots ( 3 instead of 4) on the lower denomination chips.

Here's an off the wall question. Does a chip with a small inlay and inlay space weigh more than a chip with a grand inlay? It seems that these new Paulson's do weigh a little less.

Also, I think that these grand inlays are butt ugly compared to Ten and company's fine work. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
