What you’re saying makes sense for certain patterns that don’t mirror each other when flipped. For these two chips it doesn’t matter where the silver or yellow spot is placed because in one orientation it will appear left right and if you flip the chip over it will appear right left.
Yeah looks like it’s just a dumb day thing. You’re definitely right about it and to be honest that just makes the whole thing worse. I always thought there was a Paulson policy to not make chips that are the same. Guess they threw that out of the window for this order.
I’d be interested as well. I don’t see who they don’t get pulled. We can be the owners of a rare chips before it became rare.
Just get a jumers 100 for $4...same thing! Hahahaha
I'll be there later this week. I'm planning on grabbing a few for myself.
I wish I could be a fly on the wall for the meeting at Ceasars this week. Certainly is going to be a stressful one for some VP’s and execs figuring out the plan for this one. I’m still floored by the fact that this made it out to the floor. Like so many people had to check this off. It had to have many revisions and checks from people at all levels. I think the even funnier part is that the TCR sale happened like a month ago and I’m near 100% certain there are casinos monitoring this site.
According to some sources, the Empress Star secondary tournament chips were so close to the WSOP secondaries, that GPI reprinted the entire set for free.
Congratulations!Big update
After talking to Rufus regarding the mystery bounty, he advised me to spread that $1600 BI money over the rest of the week.
We decided to play the Super Sunday at Orleans. It started at 11 AM and was $200 with $100 add on/rebuy for 20k in chips. Almost 220 entries and 11k for first.
Rufus got rivered pretty early and went to the cash table. I had a slow start but after a first difficult hour things improved and I was running good and playing well.
It went on and on and on…made it to the final table with a good stack. 3 pro’s and 3 rec players left at the end and blinds kept on rising. We all had similar stacks and when we where all left with 10 - 18 big blinds, we discussed a chop. After almost 16h we didn’t want it to end in a lucky shove fest.
ICM numbers showed a payout between $4300 and $5800 for all players. I got a $5230 payout
Good times in Vegas…more coming but need sleep. I skipped sleeping Saturday night, last night with Rufus and Mikey and was back in the hotel on Monday morning 4 am. I’m way below 20h of sleep since I arrived on Wednesday. Time to take it easy for the coming days

Jumer's $100s were secondaries. I wanted to try and see if someone had a picture of them side by side to really see the comparison.
Love this!
Sounds like it’s been nothing but amazing!! Love to hear it!
Hope the weather allows you to get home on time Thomas. It’s always awesome to hang with you. Can’t wait until the Divide and then later in Belgium.
Hope you get out of here ok. Stay warm.Last update from Vegas…
Back at my room after the last night and since it was my last…I wanted to do something special.
Took the monorail to Sahara and hit most casino’s on the way back that I was not able to visit yet.
I visited
Westgate: fantastic sportbook but poker room sucked
Sahara: love the place, went with Mike in September…great vibe/atmosphere but no poker tables running
Circus circus: good lord, might as well stay home with the three kids, not a place for me and looks old too
Ressorts World: beautiful and very modern, bike poker room with plenty of action…great music too
Encore & Wynn: stunning…poker room was packed even after WPT but many good players
Palazzo & Venetian: already visited these in September but loved seeing Little Italy in Vegas again
Bellagio: Rufus, Marc and I already visited the conservatory….always amazing to see. Poker room is the softest I played in
After that 4h walk, I was down for some In&Out, power nap and some poker.
Horseshoe was full with massive list, the high hand bonus is running from 12 to 12 so in between the place is packed with OMC players only playing premium hands for the bonus..no value here.
Some shut eye then, woke up at 1 AM and couldn’t get a spot at HS so went down to Bellagio and got in the 1/3 game.
Got to 700 but then table broke..both the 2/3 and 5/10 had massive stacks at the table so at 6 I played my last hand.
Time to pack the bags, shower, breakfast and short trip to Spinettis….then airport and back to Belgium.
Has an awsome week and the cards were with me…the Orleans score boosted my confidence and next time I’m ready to play bigger games and tournies.
Thanks for riding with me, my PCF friends.
Special thanks to Mikey, Rufus, Mark and Oscar, always great to be able to count on US & local Vegas friends when in the US.
Yeah. If you didn’t do that I think you don’t make it. Good choice!A good thing I’m flying direct from Phoenix to London…East & Central looks horrible.
I need to be home before Christmas and if I would be stuck, i would prefer Vegas
There is a strike going on in London HT so I will prolly be shafted there…I will keep the travel report going until I’m back home.
If you can get your bags, see about traveling to Gatwick from LHR and fly out of there. Good luck.A good thing I’m flying direct from Phoenix to London…East & Central looks horrible.
