Watching the Reno Hilton tournament from Season 3 (Phil Ivey, et al) while working from the home office this afternoon.
These have got to be the uglyest chips (at least for a professional tournament) I have *ever* seen. Mono-color chips...pink, brown and yellow. Ick! _________________ --

Foxwoods(CT) and Turning Stone(NY) tourney chips are the same deal...
FOXWOODS Tourney Chips
TURNING STONE Tourney Chips
Which I believe are made by the same folks as the chips I use for my 25c/50c Pot-Limit cash game, Cluen Chips (formerly The Burt Company, formerly The Portland Billiard Ball Company) from right here in Portland, Maine. Sold to the home market by pokerchips.com

I expect a tournament of any noterity (at least, enough to be a WPT event) to have Chipco or Paulson chips.
BTW, I'm getting my bankroll back up for the Paulson buy. I'll still keep the dice chips, though. _________________ --

Don't believe everything you see on T.V.... Just because it's a WPT Tournament, doesn't mean it's a high-class tournament. For a place like Reno, they can clean it up for the last 6 people to be shown on T.V. _________________ "Play Like The Pros Play"
