WPT Chips
WPT Chips are Perfect for World Poker Tour Fans
WPT poker chips are available for purchased through many authorized dealers. WPT, or World Poker Tour, introduced Texas Hold’em Poker as a televised sport in 2003. The roots of today’s overwhelming international Poker interest can be traced directly to the 2003 beginnings of World Poker Tour.
WPT poker chips allow home poker players to imitate the top world poker champions by using the same WPT poker chips that are seen on television.
WPT poker chips are produced in three colors: blue, red and black. The chips all have a white center that displays the WPT logo. The logo in the center of the WPT poker chips consists of the words World Poker Tour in black arranged next to an ace of spades. The ace of spades is the highest card in a poker. The outside edge of each poker chip has four spades on it along with two stripes flanking each spade. The outer edge is colored red, blue or black. The logo on each WPT poker chip is laminated to ensure durability.
WPT poker chips are a clay composite chip weighing 11.5 grams. They are designed to replicate true casino chips meaning they look and feel like a casino poker chip. WPT poker chips even have the same sound as a casino poker chip.
Authorized dealers of World Poker Tour products sell officially licensed WPT poker chips. The packaging of the WPT poker chips varies by seller. Some retailers sell WPT poker chips individually, others sell them only as a tournament set. The most basic tournament set of WPT poker chips contains a total of 300 WPT poker chips. The chips in a 300 chip tournament set include 150 blue WPT poker chips, 100 red WPT poker chips and 50 black WPT poker chips. The basic set of WPT poker chips includes two decks of WPT cards and a metal storage case. Other sets are available for authorized deals with larger quantities of chips and upgraded cases. Additionally, a set is also marketed as a replica of the set given to celebrity players at the 2003 Hollywood WPT.
Considering the popularity of World Poker Tour events and celebrities, WPT poker chips are a sure bet as a special gift for your favorite poker fan.
