Default Card Protectors -- No content

No content, just making conversation.

Just curious, what do people use to let the dealer know their cards are still in play.

I use a Sacagawea Dollar coin.

I use a small solid bronze statue of a chinese dragon.

I firmly believe you should use something other than a chip to protect your hand if that chip could be put into play. I have seen players go all-in and have their hands mucked by mistake THREE times, once in a ring game and twice in tournaments.

Anything small and heavy with a flat base like a large coin or small statue is ideal, imho. Just make sure your card protector will not cut, scratch, or otherwise mark the cards.

Anything that can reflect like a mirror should not be allowed on the table. Especially sitting next to the dealer.

Just because you are all in does not mean you should not protect your cards. If you are all in but you use a chip to protect your cards put a finger on them and they will not be snatched away from you.
