By admin on October 14th, 2011

Fathers Day is just around the corner, and if you're looking for that unique gift for the dad who has everything, consider a custom poker gift. There are a lot of cookie cutter poker products on the market, but if your father is anything like mine, he already has every thing commercially available. Here are some unique, one of a kind ideas for the poker loving dad who has everything.

1. Custom-built wooden poker chip case with matching removable poker chip trays.

There are a multitude of poker chip cases and trays on the market, from inexpensive plastic trays to outrageously expensive sets. If your dad has clay poker chips or more expensive collectible chips, you may want to consider ordering a custom, handcrafted wooden case. Several artisans will make the chip case to your specifications and allow you to choose from a variety of exotic hard woods and detailed inlay options. When ordering a wooden chip case or trays, you should specify that the finish be chip friendly, and be certain that his poker chips are appropriately sized for the chip case. Generally speaking, the majority of chips are of the 39mm size, however large denomination chips, as well as chips based on the Paulson Inverted Hat and Cane mold, are of the larger, 43mm size, and will most likely need special chip trays and cases. Not only can your dad organize those stacks of poker chips lying around, but also add a touch of class to his home poker gaming experience.

2. Tailor-made poker chip sets imprinted with dads personalized home casino logo.

There are a number of vendors who can create personalized poker chips with your design on them. You can supply your own logo or artwork to be hot-stamped on the poker chips quickly and inexpensively. There are numerous chip customizations available, including Initials (up to 3 letters or numbers in several fonts), Chip Denominations (standard chip denominations ranging from 5 to $10,000), and Custom designs (company logos, family crests, names, dates, cartoon characters or miscellaneous graphics) to name a few.

3. Personalized barware engraved with dads name or casino logo.

Custom glassware such as personalized shot glasses, wine, martini, whiskey rocks glasses, hi- ball glasses, pint pub glasses, beer mugs & other personalized glassware can be printed with your logo or design.

4. Personalized Playing Cards with dads casino logo.

You can have personalized playing cards with the design and copy of your choice from a huge number of vendors at a relatively inexpensive price. Use an image from the vendors template gallery or send your own art. Custom playing cards can be made to your specific needs, whatever the occasion, theme, or event.

5. A custom poker table.

If your dad is a real poker aficionado, and is into hosting his own home games, you may want to have a custom poker table or table topper built. There are several vendors who will build a custom game table to your specifications. You can select from a variety of fabric colors, table designs, and metal or wood finishes, and tray insert designs.

Whatever custom poker gift you choose, be sure to give yourself enough time to have your gift created and delivered in time for Father's Day. Custom poker chips can take anywhere from 2 to 3 weeks to complete, and custom chip cases and poker tables may take several weeks or longer depending on the design specifications.
