Review by Robert Lidral for Fat Cat Hold’em Dealer Poker Chip Set (500 Chips)

The set I received matched the picture but not the description. The two differences were:
(1) The case is not lockable. That is OK with me; I don’t plan to lock it and didn’t want the hassle of keeping track of the keys. Also, the case has three latches instead of the two on a lot of other sets. The extra latch provides additional protection against accidental opening.
(2) The chip color distribution is:
150 white
150 red
100 blue
50 green
50 black
I prefer this color distribution because I am accustomed to the following values for each color:
white – 1
red – 5
blue – 10
green – 25
black – 100
and it’s usually a good idea to have more chips for the smaller denominations than for the larger ones. However, since the chips do not have denominations on them, they can be used for any denominations desired.
These are not true casino-grade chips (and they cost a lot less than casino-grade chips). But they’re great for home games. I bought them on sale for less than $35 (less than $.07/chip) which is a really good price. You’d have a hard time finding lightweight plastic chips for that price and these are much the better 39mm 11.5g chips. The price was even better because Amazon had a temporary deal making this eligible for FREE Super Saver shipping so I didn’t have to pay shipping charges.
Many of the chips had very slight casting burrs. These were not easily visible and only barely noticeable to the touch — I had to look for them. I don’t consider this a defect at this price and they may wear off during use, but I wanted to mention it to be thorough. Also, two of the chips had defects in the colors but 2 out of 500 is pretty good quality control for this price.
As described, the set included 2 decks of cards and 3 buttons (dealer, small blind, and big blind). The case also included a space for dice (the dice weren’t mentioned in the listing and weren’t included in the set). I only mention that in case you want to add poker dice (also available from Amazon): there’s room in the case for them.
Other reviews complain about shipping damage. My set arrived quickly (less than a week with FREE Super Saver shipping) and in perfect condition.

I bought this set for my father for Christmas, and I was a little worried that it would not have the big blind and little blind chips, but it did and it is PERFECT! I think it’s very high quality, it has heavy chips and a heavy case, and exactly what I/he wanted! I was so pleased with my purchase! I got it from Fogdog, I received it in less than a week. I could not be happier with this set or the service! Thank you!

I wanted to get real clay chips but most sellers do not ship to APO address or shipping cost was very expensive. So, I decided to get this from Amazon w/ free shipping. Overall rating was great so I thought it would be the right choice. I don’t really understand how this item was rated as 4 ½ stars. Poor quality chips and decks, dusty. It is very light and made of chip plastic. Some people might say “what do you expect for $36?” but I just want to let you know this is not the one you need if you are looking for casino quality poker chips.

A poker chip set with a four star rating and free shipping, good deal right?. Its not,they are poorly made plastic chips with colors that bled into each other or have blurred print. The manufacturer also forgot the last step in making the poker chips; which was smoothing the rough edges. I had bought this chip set to play with my friends and was more disappointed than they were.
There are better chips on Amazon, you might worry that you will have to pay twenty dollars on shipping. I say, spend the extra twenty dollars and get a good chip set you can be proud of.

I read the review from the guy who thought he should be getting clay quality chips. For $39.00???? Some people are never satisfied. Five stars from me. Great value, great chips, great case and free delivery.
