Clay poker chip sets come in three types of base material, composite, clay and pro-clay. The number of chips available in a set may vary from 100 to 2000. If you are planning to buy clay poker chip sets and are in a fix regarding which set would be the best for you, the following information can be extremely useful for you. First of all, let’s take a look at the relative merits and demerits of the different materials used in clay poker chip sets.

Composite Chip Sets: Composite clay chips are generally more plastic and less clay. Still, they are a far better choice than the ABS compressed plastic chips. A metal is also inserted in these chips in order to give them more weight. They are usually available in 10 gm, 11.5 gm and 13.5 gm weight. Merits: They look very attractive as colourful labels are attached to them. They are also less slick than ABS chips and, therefore, stack better. Demerits: They may become dull over time, as their corners get scratched due to rough handling. Their labels may also peel around the edges which gives them a very shabby look. Because of their high plastic content, they produce a clinking sound that does not match with that of casino chips.

Clay Chip Sets: These chips have a higher percentage of clay than the plastic material. They also have a metal insert and are usually heavier than composite chips. Merits: Their heavier weight makes them more easily stackable than plastic chips. When tossed in your hands, they produce a very casino like sound. Demerits: Because of the higher clay content, they are less durable and more expensive than composite clay chips.

Pro Clay Chip Sets:  These chips are made of pure clay or the maximum content of clay. They are also called ‘casino grade’ chips and have a rough texture. Pure clay chips are generally very heavily priced, some of them at more than $1 per chip. Merits: They feel like real casino chips as they produce a rich sound when shuffled. Due to the rough texture, they are easily stackable and do not spill over even if you slide them across the table. Demerits: They are exceptionally expensive and are not very durable.
