Fat Cat 500Ct Texas Hold'em Poker Chip Set

My wife informed me that she read some reviews, saying that the case (at least internally) was of poor quality. I must say that in our case, it certainly is not, so now I wonder if other buys received the product damaged in shipping. I do not know but ours at least, looked beautiful inside, from the internal formed chip holders, to the egg-carton foam topper - it was all in perfect condition. The aluminum case itself is very sturdy, not unlike some of my hand-gun cases, and that is saying a lot, as this set is quite heavy and had to endure shipping, yet arrived in immaculate condition. The quality and weight of the chips is fantastic as well. Overall, I personally, could not be more pleased with this set, especially at this price point. As far as I'm concerned, I am glad to recommend it to others. I'm looking forward to much family fun with this set, along with out full-sized table-top Poker mat. Can't wait. Enjoy!

Nice set. Very sturdy

My friends and I have recently gotten into playing poker. This set was bought on a whim and based entirely on the price. I was prepared to sacrifice a significant chunk of quality just for the sheer quantity of chips, and was pleasantly surprised. Pros: The chips have a good weight in the hand as well, as well as two packs of cards and a case. The chips have no signs of paint chipping within the last 50 hours of playing (over beers and snacks). I am extremely impressed and very satisfied with the chips. I now leave 2 or 3 on my desk to just play around with. Cons: (VERY MINOR) The only qualms I have with the product is the sturdiness of the case. The handle seems quite suspect given that the chips themselves weigh something like 20 pounds all together. Given my suspicions, I simply hold the case with two arms when transporting it. This can be annoying for some, but doesn't bother me much at all. The second issue I have is the quality of the cards. Within 15 hours of playing, the cards themselves began to rip, so we could easily identify the two of clubs and other cards just from their damage. But packs of cards themselves are cheap so I give this product a pass. Additionally, they give two packs and the second pack has not been damaged yet. Conclusion: Overall, this is an incredible value and I highly recommend picking it up. This is coming from a relatively picky consumers. Hope you guys enjoy the product and hats off the distributor of the product.

Super happy with it! the case and chips are great. Im just starting out and this is exactly what i was expecting in quality for the price. 4 stars only because the cards are cheap cheap like i could see the patter on the back of the cards from the front while they are laying face up on the table. Again not that big of a deal im still really happy about this purchase.

Pros: Chips are surprisingly nice, considering the price. The dice on the chips are painted on but the white/blue stripes along the edges appear to be plastic molding so the color will not wear off over time. The chips also have decent weight. The supplied dealer and big/small blind chips are of acceptable quality, though the dealer chip is made of a cheap plastic blend with inconsistent coloring (a few small dark streaks). Cons: The case holds up well, but is made of cheap materials. The outside looks aluminum, but after a few uses, I see that it's really just thin, ribbed plastic that's easily dented. I don't know what the internal structure is though; I'm hoping it's metal, but it may be plastic as well. The inside is lined with black felt-like material, looks nice but I imagine after a year or so of use, the fuzz will start coming off. (Though I've used this set twice weekly for about 3 months now and there's no sign of wear) Third case latch in the middle, while it may be necessary, is really awkwardly placed. The handle gets in the way so you have to unlatch it from the side instead of from the bottom (fingernails required). With the handle turned up so that the bottom can be access, the latch does not clear the handle so that doesn't work either. Other thoughts: Not that anyone uses the supplied cards with poker sets, but I'll review them for the curious. The cards are your typical, cheap Chinese brand. The case is misspelled "#96 Glub Special," not sure what a "glub" is. But in the back it says "Club Special"... right underneath "BCG Extra Selected." (Not sure what that means either) As for the cards themselves, they're of good thickness and decent stiffness. Shuffling is not a problem, but because they are completely smooth, unlike Bicycle cards, which have a dimpled finish, there is a lot of friction between cards. I don't know how well these hold up, but they're an okay temporary replacement for when someone forgets the good cards.

I bought this poker chip set for my brother as a Christmas gift, and it was a huge hit! The set comes with 500 high-quality claytec chips, which feel really nice and sturdy. The weight of the chips (11.5 grams) makes them perfect for a smooth, authentic poker experience. The aluminum case it comes in is sleek and sturdy, making it super easy to store and transport. It's also got plenty of room for all the chips and accessories, and it’s a nice touch to have the case looking as professional as the chips inside. My brother has been using the set regularly, and it’s held up well. The chips look great, and they add an extra level of excitement to poker nights with friends and family. Overall, this is a fantastic gift for any poker enthusiast and a great addition to anyone’s game night setup!

I was a little skeptical purchasing these chips because I saw all of the negative reviews. I must say now that I have them I am very happy with my choice. Some people will never be satisfied with anything. It is very important to understand that you are paying just about 32 dollars for 500 poker chips that equates to about 6 cents a chip. It is also important to remember that there is no shipping charge for this product (at the time of this review. So when someone says pay the extra 20 dollars and get a nicer set remember that is 20 + almost 20 for shipping. that said let me get to the chips themselves. they are all the same dimensions. I saw some posts complaining about width and height. Basically if you set down a ten stack and match its height then you don't need to count the chips (you will have ten). I only say this because I know some people were claiming that this was not so. the chips have blemishes some are scratched others are streaked some have paint run over or a small dimple or are small protrusion on the edge but let's face it... no one is looking at the chips. On the positive the chips have an excellent weight and make a nice sound. It is very satisfying to toss them into the pot or rake them out and stack them. It seems to me that fat cat just took the chips with minor defections from their more expensive set and decided to sell them at an extremely reduced price(i mean why throw the chips away when they can make something on them) So let me end with this. If you are a reasonable individual (ie. understanding you are not getting casino quality for your money) and are hosting a game with friends and want to save money then this set is excellent. All of my friends were amazed at how great the chips looked and felt for the 32 dollars that I paid, and all of them asked me to forward them the link on amazon so that they could purchase their own. I would say that if I were trying to impress maybe a business partner or wealthy boss then these are probably not the chips for you. Recap: Pros: affordable, 500 chips (allows play with up to 10 people), 5 divisions of color, dealer chip, good weight, good sound, all around satisfying, free shipping, comes with case. Cons: small blemishes, not perfect, not true clay, rather claytec, case handle is flimsy. Rating: 5 stars (I chose 5 stars and not solely because of the price. yes, the chips are not perfect. I received them with low expectations and was extremely impressed at the quality vs price. That is key here quality and price because yes there are much better chips but they come at much higher price and for me spending 60 dollars when i could spend 30 on this great product was a no brainer) I hope this helped you decide. I highly recommend the chips to casual players who have smaller buy ins and make it a guys night.

Durable poker chips for at home poker games. The quality is top notch. These are very durable. Colors are great.

My buddies and I play poker at least once a week and wanted to get some more chips. I purchased this set for us and they are exactly what we needed. The cards it come with are not great at all, but I more bought it just for the chips. Case has held up well over the last year and chips still look great also.

This is a very nice poker set, definitely recommend. Thank you.

Do not buy.

If all you care about is the chips, then you're all good... they feel good in hand, the weight is nice and they sound Casino-like when thrown on the mat during a game. The case however, is another story: mine came completely shattered inside, with bits of felt, lumps of dried glue and broken plastic raining down as soon as I opened it. Once I cleared the mess I was left with almost no inner frame to hold together the chip stacks, and see-through areas where you can see the backside of the external panels. The outside rivets don't really line up, it's creaky and heavy, you can tell it's been assembled poorly and then forced into place. Overall it's extremely low quality, but made in PLC so not completely unexpected... I was tempted to bin it straight away, but I guess if I need to take it to some friends' place I'll just put a big cloth inside and dump all the chips in... in the meantime, that thing is going to the basement and the chips will reside in cookie jars

Llevo mas de un año usando el estuche para reuniones con mis amigos y puedo decir que tanto las fichas como el estuche son de muy buena calidad con materiales resistentes. Las barajas dejan un poco que desear pero es lo de menos.
