The Triton series is in South Korea where they played a 1 billion buying KRW event, with these chips:

Going to be fun when they finally show it!

Not sure if Zimbabwe has any casinos, but their currency was under hyperinflation and they printed 100 trillion dollar bills. I would assume there would be some ridiculous chips at the casino if they existed.

I think a few years ago somebody was selling some plaques from Zimbabwe with a "1" followed by lots and lots of "zeros".

Chip looks like a Matsui.

Makes sense given they have a manufacturing plant in Korea.

My Mother-in-law is Korean will be there in Busan later this year.

Think I’ll get in trouble with the wife if I have her harvest some chips while she’s there?

No.

Mostly saying no, because I want to see a couple racks of Koreans chips hit the classifieds :coffee:

Note the BGinGA below the denom.

Oh, now I do need one of those chips. If @BGinGA still has a bullet saying "Poker Zombie", I'm surely getting a chip that says "BG".

Hooters, Las Vegas does the same thing. ceramic $1s, all the rest Paulson. MY guess is that low denom chips walk more, so < $1 (or 1,000 Korean Won) per chip is the best way to keep from losing money.

Yeah.... but you won't have taken it from ME.

Hmmm.... it's roughly 1000 won to the dollar. No 5000 or 25000 won chips?

Right - I'll have to get it from "Korean Dave", better known as @BGinKOR.
