If you’re into Craps, then the 11.5 Gram Striped Dice Custom Poker Chips are the way to go. However, even though they look good for Craps, you can use them just the same for Holdem’ or any other poker game out there. The choice is yours, but I wanted to take a few moments and talk about my own experience. It might help you understand the importance of custom design poker chips.

About six months ago my partner (Josh) said we were in some major financial trouble. A lot of it had to do with the economy, but I didn’t want to sit back and blame everything on what other people do. So we were looking for new ways to promote the business. Josh was fiddling around with the thought that we could buy advertisements at the local little league ballparks, and I had absolutely nothing.

Now my partner isn’t one that likes to play cards or Craps or anything that involves risking his hard earned money. As a business owner that’s great and everything, but the money that revolves around gambling is ridiculous. Oh and it’s still up there during the economic problems the world is experiencing. So my thought was we needed to somehow make our mark in this industry.

The thought didn’t go over well, but we eventually agreed that holding a tournament would be worth a try. Getting other sponsors along the way kept our costs low, and allowed us to purchase these 11.5 Gram Striped Dice Custom Poker Chips. There were other things as well, but the poker chips were how we were going to set ourselves apart from our competitors.

Now the chips themselves weren’t particularly flashy, but adding the “1st Annual Poker Pub Tourney” design in the center gave everyone a nice little indication on who held the tournament. We also have our digits on there as well, and you wouldn’t believe how many people actually call saying they have a poker chip. Long story short we did well and our business is still in full swing.

Unfortunately we never got around to getting a Craps table, but these 11.5 Gram Striped Dice Custom Poker Chips would be perfect. There are dice wrapping around the edges of the chips with each die 1-6. Situated in between are block colors, which you can choose from eleven different choices. One thing to keep in mind is that if you don’t go with a custom design, the center will be the same color as the blocks on the edges.

Whether you choose the 11.5 Gram Striped Dice Custom Poker Chips because you enjoy playing Craps or not, they’re good for anything. In the past few months we’ve heard people purchasing various colors just to get different denominations. Then again, you can make denomination designs and have them numbered. Whatever you decide to do, these are definitely worth looking into a little more. The end result will either leave you with great advertising pieces, or a way to have others enjoy your game.
