There are many reasons why people love playing poker. From players that play for pure fun to the more serious competitive professionals, the thrill of placing your bets and seeing if you have any luck winning your money back – and more – attracts many players from around the world. Apart from having a fresh deck of cards to play with, one of the most important accessories you should have in every poker game is highly quality poker chips.
What are Poker Chips?
Also known as checks or tokens, poker chips are commonly used in lieu of cash in even the lowest stakes games. They are small and easy-to-handle discs that help make a poker game flow at a faster rate. Poker chips are also used because most card rooms no longer allow cash on the table. Higher stake games, on the other hand, allow players to keep hundred-dollar bills alongside their chips.
Custom chips are indeed a worthy expense as they improve the overall quality of any poker game and reduce the liability of someone running chips into the game (counterfeiting). Here is quick look at the types of poker chips that are available today:
- Clay poker chips
- Ceramic poker chips
- Composite poker chips
- Plastic poker chips
What is an Easy Way to Customize My Chips?
There are four common types of poker chip designs and they include standard designs, sticker designs, gold/silver foil stamping designs and engraved designs. If you wish to customize your own poker chips, you can consider making poker chip labels. These party and event labels are not only inexpensive solutions, but are easy to create as well!
With these labels, you can bring the casino home!

Poker Chip Labels Can Help Add a Kid-friendly Spin to a Casino Classic!
Do you have any poker chips stored in the darkest corners of your storage cabinets and have been collecting dust? Well, it is time to put them into good use! By just designing poker chip labels, you can turn them into reward tokens, kids’ memory game tokens and even chore tokens! Here’s how you can go about this idea:
- You can create labels by adding words of encouragement like “You have done an awesome job!” to reward your kid’s good behavior.
- Interested in adding a twist on a classic? Print out two of each unique design and paste them on the chips. Your kid can shuffle the chips and place them face down before challenging themselves to find the matching pairs!
- If you want your child to complete their chores quickly, you can give them allowance tokens. If they finish collecting a certain amount of poker chips, they can redeem a prize.
