  1. What chips are those? I see them in all your videos. They're nice. I'll like to add them to my collection

  2. You forgot to add the "peel off" string bet.
    While technically not a “string bet” as per definition, this illegal bet is quite similar in nature. It occurs when a player takes a large stack of chips into their hand, applies forward motion and/or places the chips across the line. They then cut out only a certain number of chips from the stack in hand into smaller, easier-to-read stacks, and then peels back the remaining chips that he or she doesn’t wish to be a part of the bet. This move is illegal because it looks like the player might be betting more than they intend to bet. This is a tactic that players could use to angle their opponent into giving off a read on the strength of their hand. Like a string bet, this move takes into account the same underlying rules of forward motion. In this instance, the whole amount of the stack used during the original forward motion would be used as the bet, instead of the smaller, “cut out” amount.
