This is one of those inventions that make you slap your forehead in a ‘why didn’t I think of that?’ way – a set of poker chips and a pack of cards in an aluminium case small enough to carry about wherever you go.

Now you can go down the pub, or plan a long train journey and forget about playing with coins or – worse – keeping track of several chip stacks in your head or on a pad of paper.

They’re not that easy to riffle with but, at precisely an inch in diameter, they’re not too fiddly to play with comfortably.

Class, and an absolute bargain to boot.
