Well you COULD play with matchsticks and an overturned cable spool but that wouldn't be very fun, would it?

You don't want people to realize that they are playing with their rent money. I can understand playing with cheap chips, but never cash.

Re: Aficionado\'s Of Poker Chips, Kem\'s, Copaq\'s.
I can give you a good legit reason. It helps keep a home game going. The players in my game like to have the nice 'trappings' when they play. I think I get a great turnout every week (a waiting list usually) because it's fun to play in my game. It's fun to play with nice chips and cards on a nice table. It's makes people feel like 'players' and it's fun to be a 'player'.
Poker should be fun and home games are at least partly social too. The days of plastic chips and crap cards and smoky backrooms are gone. If you want to have a successful game you need to put a little effort into it. Be a good host and people will go out of there way to attend your game. Rob
