The Bank - Poker Chips for Board Gamers

[@MyklSkeleton]

Hey guys, what set of poker chips do you own? How do you like them? Let me know!

[@Schlumpfage]

I just ordered 500 of them for my poker game. I like that there is no currency like the $ on them. Makes it easier for europeans like me. I ordered a sample set majestics first, but chose the banks for their awesome colors in combination with the denominations. Love that pink 50. Thanks for the cool Video.

[@santomaxx]

@@Schlumpfage have you ordered them from Apache or somewhere else?

[@Schlumpfage]

@@santomaxx yes, from apache is correct.

[@santomaxx]

@@Schlumpfage how much did you pay for the shipping to italy? (i guess)

[@Schlumpfage]

@@santomaxx nice guess but it's germany. ;) It was $83,15 for the 500 chips.

[@NecronomThe4th]

YES! STACKS! Thank you! Finally... i mean no offense to other reviewers but really its the stack that matters the most.

[@MyklSkeleton]

Haha glad you appreciated it. It’s all about the STACKS for sure and I really wanted to highlight that here 🙂

[@steveminla]

VERY good review! About time someone decided to to show the stacked edges and how they blend/stand out next to other chips. As well as getting a better look at the real colors. Especially since the colors look darker on their website from what they look like in hand.

[@MyklSkeleton]

Haha thanks! Drove me nuts watching other poker chip reviews and nobody would show big stacks just single chips while they talked. Glad I’m not the only one :)

[@StormCrow42]

A little oil (or maybe even wiping them with a damp cloth) really gets the blue of the 2000 chip much darker and makes the pink and green spots pop more.

[@MyklSkeleton]

Good to know, thanks!

[@neilurwin9670]

These Are Phenomenal Chips And Brilliant Video All The Best To You.

[@MyklSkeleton]

Thank you, I really appreciate it!

[@jjg27]

Thinking of getting these as a one-off purchase. How have the chips held up for you after 4 years?

[@MyklSkeleton]

They’ve held up great, no issues whatsoever. I’m still extremely happy with this purchase and everyone who plays with them compliments my chips. I really didn’t need the super high denominations because not many games use them but I’m still happy I got them just in case. I love using these chips when we play games!

[@jjg27]

@@MyklSkeleton Great news, thanks for replying! I really like the look of these chips and have ordered a sample.

[@aardbij180]

Seriously a good review. You clearly show the behaviour and sound of these chips. Most reviews hold one chip and lack the interaction in stacks and dynamics when used. Are you willing to do more of these with other china clay chips?

[@MyklSkeleton]

If I had more then I’d gladly do other videos but this became my poker chip set and I don’t really need anything else, I went all in and got more than enough to cover all my future needs lol. Actually I do have a set of Iron Clays that came with Brass. I love the look and aesthetic of them but they are super slippery and ultimately I decided The Bank chips were better suited for my need. I might get more if they do another Kickstarter in the future though, they are really nice for certain economic games. Thanks for the comment, glad you enjoyed the video!

[@aardbij180]

@@MyklSkeleton your video, together with samples convinced me already... order (also more than enough lol) is on the way! Happy playtime! Your style and humor would make great board game reviews/tutorials.

[@MyklSkeleton]

@@aardbij180 I appreciate the kind words. Hope you enjoy these as much as I do! So nice to have a good set of chips around for any game we play. Money well spent in my book :)

[@ericbond5276]

I bought a sample set a week ago. Thanks for pushing me down the rabbit hole. I bought a 500 set of Royal Flush.

[@MyklSkeleton]

Awesome! Hope you enjoy your set :)

[@ericbond5276]

@@MyklSkeleton I posted on pokerchip forum and one troll accused me of hijacking the post and said the chips are ugly. So much for tolerance. Thank you for your kind reply.

[@zga042]

what made you go with the royal flush over the bank? for board gaming or for poker?

[@shortydancer]

Are you going to make the video comparing these to the iron clays?

[@MyklSkeleton]

I kind of forgot about that! I could possibly do one soon-ish. Currently rearranging my games onto a Kallax so everything is covering the table but once I get it cleared out I’ll see about doing that

[@lewanzzz]

the 20s look incredible im gonna buy these

[@MyklSkeleton]

You know I didn’t really like the 20s at first but they’ve grown on me. The lime green spots with the grey is actually pretty nice!

[@grahamdavis8777]

@@MyklSkeleton how do you find the 2k's after some use? Those were one of the main reasons I chose a higher denom set than the lowers..

[@MyklSkeleton]

@@grahamdavis8777 just saw your comment, for some reason KZbin never notified me. Anyways, the 2k chips are just like the others after using them for awhile. They are probably the least used (mainly for For Sale) but once the powder wore off they were good. Still the grippiest out of all of them but that’s not a bad thing in my book

[@grahamdavis8777]

@@MyklSkeleton I ended up getting these.. And yes, the 2K arent really useful, but they are pretty.

[@ericbond5276]

The trains might come back in stock in May.

[@KJNZ2011]

These look great. Too bad weight ( and currency conversions at the moment) prohibit shipping to my side of the world otherwise would invest in these! I might have to get a sample so I can keep the dream alive

[@zga042]

having 5 extra for each barrel is good for breakage or loss over time

[@MyklSkeleton]

That’s a great point and makes a lot of sense!

[@ericbond5276]

Vey basic without fancy logos. That is the way to go. Thank you.

[@MyklSkeleton]

Yes, the crazy logos held me back from buying poker chips for a very long time. So glad I found these

[@ericbond5276]

@@MyklSkeleton I bought quite a few samples. I did get the Bank samples y-day. I liked how they held back the chips they were out of and used them for the sample sets- good biz practice. I didn't get the choo choo lol. I am getting the skull samples from MRC as well as King of spades and Dead Presidents. I bot the Royal flush because they are traditional. Have a nice weekend.

[@ericbond5276]

@@MyklSkeleton Today I received in the mail, Dead Presidents and King of Spades. Quirky and nice but I still like Royal Flush from Discount Poker. I might go for a micro set. Probably won't host in my tiny apt. but want to have. I have several M&M 1:24 NASCAR diecast, but certainly won't enter a race. I just appreciate for what they are.

[@BigD751]

I have these chips and I like them a lot. Thinking of getting more.

[@MyklSkeleton]

This was one of the better purchases I made in terms of being able to use them for all sorts of different games and my kids and wife love playing with them too. Can I ask what break down of denominations you got? Did you get them labeled or unlabeled? What else are you thinking about getting?

[@1Peace]

For some reason, this guy reminds me of Norville "Shaggy" Rogers from the "Scooby-Doo Where Are You?" cartoon.

[@MyklSkeleton]

That’s a new one lol. Usually I get compared to Toby from the Office :)

[@ericbond5276]

They might be bigger and they fit in the acrylic rack barely.

[@shortydancer]

21:09 you’re a monster

[@MyklSkeleton]

Sorry, not sorry 😂

[@ericbond5276]

Can I give you another thumbs up?

[@MyklSkeleton]

I’m cool with that! 😎

[@grahamdavis8777]

Great video. Just ordered a set of these for poker. Great video, but you can really tell you havent soent much time behind poker chips.. You spill them more than the stereotypical drunk guy at games..

[@MyklSkeleton]

😂 I’m definitely an amateur when it comes to poker chips lol. I’d like to think I’m better now at not spilling them but probably not...
