Wow, great collection. Really liked the El Condor samples, very nice design. And the WSOP tribute set is well done.

 

[CaliKing21]

Nice collection, Happy holiday's

 

[aggie]

Very nice! I see some incredible double barrels in there ….

 

[PocketAces]

Work in progress…

I think this picture summarizes my sickness chipping year pretty well. I have been chasing BOH for a year now…finishing that rack would be the best way to close this project « for good »

next up, the one set that was supposed to make me forget about the Lakeshores, the Camino Casino. It's a phenomenal set - I absolutely love it. Some will be tilted by the variation in chips condition (between very well used $1 and the excellent $20). Just imagine this set in its prime...

Breakdown
100 x 25c ("AM" fracs)
390 x $1
400 x $5
210 x $20
80 x $100 (OG Oceanside Card Club $10)

This is one of my favorite sets in your collection. The fives and the twenties are absolutely wonderful!

Ill admit that while I was travelling I considered putting them up for trade for a set that I’ve been dreaming to put together for a while now. I came back home yesterday, opened the chip cabinet and that thought immediately went away. They are so great…and it’s the near perfect breakdown to play most stakes.

BOH Family picture - a few more chips on the way but that will be it for now, I think. The focus is now on completing that barrel of Antique Rose $100 (trade thread here if you are interested). I am working on two THC relabel sets that will allow me to use most inlaid hundos in this picture, but I think a third one might be needed

 

[PocketAces]

Wrapping up a great chipping year with these beauties… I am not quite there yet but progress has been made. I am few chips away from completing the barrels of Silver Saddle 25c (1x) and $25 (2x)…and 7 x $5 chips away from completing barrel #2, which will get me to a 20/60/40/20 breakdown That's just nuts considering the size of the card room...maybe in 2022!

 

[PocketAces]

Starting 2022 with a few new samples...I think I have now collected all the Cali cardrooms samples I initially wanted to collect. And the Commerce tournament sample is my favorite...

...and now I can focus on collecting Cruises !

 

[PocketAces]

Oops one more…got that insane $5k from Ryan @Rbonus012 !!

This is what the $500 looked like before @JeepologyOffroad worked his magic

If I have a "GOAT" chip. It has to be the Grand Casino Gulfport $1. I fricken love that chip!

 

[mistahclean]

That whole Grand Casino lineup is pretty darn amazing!

 

[PocketAces]

I was seriously considering selling my mixed hotstamp set as I could never see how I was ever going to finish it...I was strongly advised against it by @JeepologyOffroad , so I took them out, just to see how I felt about them.

Yeah...I am not selling them Including what’s in transit, I am one barrel away from finishing the rack of Snowbanks $5, so I will just focus on that. And add maybe one more rack of Lakeshore quarters?

 

[HaRDHouSeiNC]

one more rack of Lakeshore quarters?

ehhhhhhh......

Jesus, don't do it.

One set has to go though...but the hotstamps are going nowhere.

I was so close to giving up on it. But @juankay20 and @JeepologyOffroad came to the rescue…as usual these two have provided me with a ton of assists over the past two years. They are not alone. Bunch of sets/samples you see here were put together with the help of friends I have made here

 

[PocketAces]

I don’t think I will ever get the opportunity to own a full set of original Lakeshores (I’ve tried!)…but with this set I’m getting really close

I’d rather own the real thing of course but well done to whoever designed the RPC fat spots, they are the perfect Fakeshores! May I request a black 3D38 in the next NAGB pls? I think a black hundo with some sort of light purple and salmon or radiant red spots would look great here.

Love that set, Danny. I put my ‘Merica set in play last night. USA!!!

 

[Ben8257]

That set is Baller @RivieraDanny Absolutely love the $25... but who in their right mind wouldn't vote that the $100 is the "NUTs" in this line up

Also need a barrel of $25's to finish those....
ALWAYS GAME TO OWN THE $500 and $1000 if anyone's sitting on any they don't want I'm your huckleberry!
