Design Brief

Contest title: Poker Room and Poker Chip Logo
Sub title: Custom Logo
Category: Logo Design

Brand Name:

Aces Racquet Club & Poker Room

Summary:

Having a set of custom chips made for my weekly poker games and want help designing the logo.

Description:

I'm a tennis player / coach and an avid poker player, hence the theme "Aces" 

I love Wimbledon(classic) and the US Open(modern).

I like both a classic/vintage look and a more sleek modern look so you can do either one or both.  I haven't decided the direction it's going yet, I'm counting on your expertise to win me over.  If you do one of each you up the odds of being chosen.

Additional Information:

A rectangular design is eligible for 2nd place as I will be having plaque chips made eventually 

Design Goals:

I'm looking for a logo that incorporates Ace playing card(s) with tennis Racquet(s) and/or a tennis ball.  

The logo will also be going on chips so it needs to be round in shape

I would like one of the Aces to be the ace of spades and the other to be either hearts or diamonds (no preference) 

Color preferences: Black and Red (but not a requirement, fine if only backgrounds or accents) Stay away from Purple or Orange (definitely)

I will need room to add a denomination to the chips (i.e. $1000) Can lay across part of the logo but not the name of course

I like the use of the & instead of the word "and"

Design No-Gos:

I don't want it to look cheesy, cartoony, or like clip art.

Last Couple tweaks:
#21 Can you turn the ball to look like the one in #12
#7 Can you put the spade in the racquet like in #8 and #16

#7 Excellent. Colors are great. symbol is clean and slick. I like the text layout of #5 better though
#6 I love spade and the ball. Can you make the spade a little smaller so it doesn't totally overshadow the ball? Can we use a color on the edge that is less orange

#1 I'd prefer it to be just a regular A in the name. I'd also like just 2 Aces instead of all four and there's no need to have the name in the middle, it looks good on the edge. But a sharp simple clean design.

#2 There seems to be a little too much glare across the letters and image. I do like the color on the bottom of the outer circle.
