Others get it for their friends. A set of chip with a unique design serve as great, functional gifts for poker lovers who will appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Poker pieces are great because they are not just there for ornamental purposes. They come in handy during bonding over a session of poker game and can be a great topic for conversation. Imagine having your an image of your face printed on the chips; it is unlikely that no one will be surprised! Apart from being functional, a set of custom chip also carry great sentimental value. They can be used to commemorate a special occasion and evoke wonderful memories whenever they are used for a game.

Owners can impress their friends and relatives with their one one-of-a-kind personalized poker set. Some even start a collection and feel proud to share their new found hobby with others. Many people go to the extent of purchasing multiple sets to give away as farewell presents.

A more practical function of customized poker pieces is to mitigate possibilities of cheating in the game. When standard chips with common design is used, players can surreptitiously add in their own ones. However, if the dealer uses his personalized poker pieces, everyone would have to play fair and just.

In such situations, personalized poker pieces will prevent any quarrels or finger-pointing games that can wreck the experience of the game. Ultimately, the goal of the game is for everyone to enjoy themselves.

There is a huge variety of personalized chips in the market. The difference lies in the materials, craftsmanship and the level of customization that can be carried out on the pieces.

The more affordable types are usually made of plastic and the customization comes in the form of stickers and adhesive prints. The price is cheaper because of the lower cost of producing labels. These prints are usually removable which means that there is still a chance that anyone can replicate the stickers.

The other option would be to get a set of ceramic chip. They are similar to the ones used in casinos. The price is definitely higher but more often than not, they are worth the money. The craftsmanship is usually better and every detail of the pieces can be customized. As they are usually molded from scratch, there is no risk of replication and the pieces are much more durable.

Many companies are aware of the market for customized chip and have since started to offer customization services. If the service is not available in the area you stay, there is the option of turning to online retailers who accept image files by email. They will then process your order and deliver the product to your residence in a couple of weeks. The availability of such services attracts consumers who want to enjoy a hassle-free experience.
