I have not purchased a coin in over a year – how about some poker chips !!

 

Nice!

 

I bought a poker table two months ago and have a friendly game every two weeks. :)

You appear to be hiding the green chips. Those must be the $10.00 chips?

Very nice RE Half !!

 

Slowly working on my Mom's Birth Year Collection

and as she was born in 1921, its a very slow process.

 

I finally found a decent well struck 1921-S Cent

in a moderate MS Grade that wasn't priced for

Moon Money.

 

Not quite as nice as I had hoped to locate but

its almost as nice as many in higher grade in RB that

I have seen so far. [ Found a much nicer 65RB

in Pittsburgh but the dealer thought it was struck

in 22K Gold for $2795 !! ]

That is correct. Certain colors of chips are consistent in every casino: Black $100, Green $25, Red $5. The other colors change from casino to casino. At Borgata, the $10 chip is blue and is only used in the $40-$80 Limit Holdem & mixed games and $10-$20 NLH games in the poker room. The $20 chip is yellow and is used in $60-$120 & $80-$160 Limit Holdem & Mixed games. The yellow chip is also used in the Asian pits because many of the games have a 5% commission which creates the house edge. Using $20 chips alleviates the need for the dealers to have quarters.

Not a coin or new acquisition per se, but I have never shared it before. The yellow chip shown above was a commemorative chip from the inaugural Borgata Poker Open which used to be a $10K buy-in event in September but has dropped to $3500 buy-in over the last few years.

How often do you play ?? Do you ever come up to Foxwoods ?

I had a bad week - $2000 lost in Mega Stack tourney buy in's and cash games . Not that I played bad, I just got very unlucky with some major bad beats .

Nice looking Roosie Schatzy. (thumbs u

 

Gorgeous FEC CC! :applause: It sure looks like a proof to me.

 

 

I got lucky last night at my coin club. We always have a bigger/better group of raffle prizes for the December meeting. For my $20 of tickets I won a nice white raw 1941-S Washington in (IMO) a solid MS64, maybe 65.
