BuyPokerChips.com “Neophyte” Poker Chips Chosen for Poker Magazine’s Gift Guide

December 6, 2005 – Online retailer of high-end poker chips for home players, BuyPokerChips.com, and their “Neophyte” chip line have been chosen for the All In Poker magazine’s Holiday 2005 Gift Guide as a top pick for home poker chips.

All In, touted as “World’s Leading Poker Magazine,” features poker tips, strategies, interviews with players, tournament coverage, poker events and other poker-related information.
The holiday gift guide aims to help navigate the home poker market for the top products in several categories, including cards, poker tables and poker chips.

“We are thrilled that All In magazine chose the Neophyte chips for their holiday guide,” said Stephan Aarstol, founder and President of BuyPokerChips.com. “It’s the perfect set to give as gift – many buyers are reluctant to commit to the more expensive clay sets, but they don’t want to end up with cheap plastic imitations either. Our Neophyte line is the best approximation to authentic, clay casino chips in the mid-priced plastic chip market, so you get quality at about 1/4th the price.”

The Neophyte is a mid-range poker chip line that features BuyPokerChips’s 4-color laurel wreath and dice waterproof inlay design and is available in 8 denominations. Customers who buy a Neophyte set of 300 chips or more can participate in BuyPokerChips’s Trade-up Program and get a trade-up option worth up to $100 off towards the high-end clay poker chip sets.

In addition to the Neophyte chips, BPC offers four distinct poker chip lines for the home player:

• InPlay Clay Poker Chips – the world’s first pre-oiled clay chip, featuring the vintage “Cigar & Snifter” mold and a played-with surface for a more realistic casino feel;
• Modern Clay Poker Chips – a classic Vegas-style clay chip with the company’s original “Courts and Numerals” mold;
• Archetype Casino Chips – a ceramic chip with full-color design and single composite material construction that allows for significantly higher resolution graphics; and
• Cigar & Snifter Custom Poker Chips – available from parent company Sidepot.com, this is the first custom chip available to home players that can be customized with the same, highest quality clay chips as those used in top Vegas casinos.
