"Faux Clay" doesn't refer to all the chips discussed on Chip Talk. Faux Clay is another type of inexpensive home game chip that a group (they call themselves the "Faux Clay Nation") over there is very fond of. There is a separate review of them under the title "Casino Dice Composite" at the link below.
If you look at the review above and compare the InPlay chip design you will see that he is referring to the particular brand I was mentioning, not the concept of the chips being "in play"
