Size

Paulson Poker Chips are 39 millimeters in diameter and weigh on average between 9.7 and 9.9 grams per chip. These chips are very easy to stack on top of each other as the size is uniform so you don't have to worry about the pile becoming unbalanced as it gets higher. The Paulson poker chips fit in standard poker chip holders on poker chip tables and portable tabletops.

Identification

Paulson poker chips do not have metal inserts like many other home versions of poker chips.

The inserts in the middle of the Paulson poker chips do not scratch easily, and do not peel off like the inserts on other cheaper poker chips do.

Types

Paulson poker chips come in a variety of different values. They start out with a 50 cent poker chip and go up from there to the largest denomination of $1,000. Colors on the Paulson poker chips are vibrant without being so bright that they look fake. The coloring will remind many poker players of the chips they use at casinos in Las Vegas and Atlantic City.

Warning

Purchasing a top quality poker chip means you are going to have to pay for the quality. Paulson poker chips cost an average between $1.00 and $1.50 per poker chip. The larger the set you buy, the closer your final price will be to the $1 per chip range. To get to that $1 per chip though, you will have to purchase a set of 1,000 Paulson poker chips.
