How many chips do I need for an underground casino? (1 Viewer)

Yeah just buy GPI. Would solve all ur issues

GPI was last purchased for $109.5M. That might be excessive to spend just to get good chips.

Excessive? I thought that's what this whole exercise was about?

Suddenly sensibility is brought into this conversation!?!? WTH.... I'm out.

Okay, fine. If I win Powerball, I’ll buy FGI to enable a group buy.

Underground casino owner here- lads quick question! How quickly cut off fingers are growing back? I’m afraid to lose to many customers…

How much is Paulson worth? Should my plan include buying them?

In the short term sure, in the long term they may become defunct once the younger generations become gamblers and are familiar with digital credits paired with their now ingrained fear of touching things handled by others.

Of course, at $50M+, a good make / buy analysis should be done. It might be better to invest $20M to $40M in building a better product than buying GPI.

Agree.
And do it in EU!

If I win Powerball and build a mansion, I’d like a portion of my man cave to be a casino. After I invest in a hot dog roller, I’ll need to order tables (craps, roulette, baccarat, blackjack), which is straightforward. But then I get to buy chips. How many do I get to buy?
Assuming full sized tables, what do you think?

Haha, the comment section is on fire. If you have that Powerball money, I'm sure you'll be able to ask these questions when you buy the tables themselves. The number is above 10k easy I would assume. Obviously the roulette chips will be a whole different set.

I've never saw LindaDorchen or BarbaraBooey in the same room together either

GPI is the umbrella corporation that owns Paulson (and other chip brands), which itself is owned by Angel Holdings of Japan.

Umbrella corporation?

What do you plan to do with your fantasy casino?
I have a vague backup plan for after the bombs fall (grid down, whatever you want to call it scenario)
I plan to open "the hunger games casino", where players will bring items of food in lieu of worthless cash that will be exchanged for house credit....then after they play they can take their chips to the prize table (like a ticket arcade) and claim their prizes...you could come with a can of peas and leave with a turkey and a jar of mayonnaise (A big winner!)

For that I assembled (ok not specifically for that but jokes aside "I could").
- a large cash set of over 5k chips, plus another cash set of primary/secondary chips that also reach roughly the same cash value. You may also want a large ncv set for tournament play.
- 1 poker table with a rake will require significantly more lower denomination chips than you think to fill the box.
- your minimum/maximum bets and table odds will dictate how how large your chips bank should be. If the odds offer a 25× or even 100× payout then you will need to have enough chips to cover that plus+ more.

I figure it could handle up to 1-2 poker tables, 1 blackjack and 1 roulette or some other combo of 4 to 5 table games or up to 10 table poker or blackjack tournament play with the sets i have for low to moderate stakes.

That aside you will then need to consider security........ the more ambitious you get you would need even more security.

So unless your buying a set as a backup for being a prepper I don't think you'll find yourself running an economical underground op or info here that will answer your question well.

Seeing this post 5 years after it posted made my day. I hope I'm lucky enough to go from peas to Turkey

An underground game needs at least 2 tables. That way they know you are bringing in the players. A good cash game needs about 3000 chips for 2 tables. The dealer constantly making change on the table slows down the game.
