SAVE YOUR MONEY (6 Viewers)

According to my Paulson rep buddy, the $1s and snappers were supposed to be THC, that's why they had 7/8 in inlays. Someone at Paulson made a mistake.

Jim has a friend at Paulson Maybe our future is bright

Does anyone know for sure what the highest denom at Horsehsoe Southern IN was? $5000 or $25000? Do they use gold for $25K in IN like PA/NJ or navy blue like OH?

$25,000, unknown color. $1000 chips are orange, $5000 chips are grey.

wonder how many casinos have closed for good in the last 6 months?

Could this be the golden age for chippers ?

Well the Horseshoe Hammond should be sold by the end of this year as part of the same deal that caused the sale of this casino. So I would say that since Jim got these chips it would be very likely that we will see those chips sometimes next year. The Jack Cincinnati is now Hard Rock Cincinnati so we may be seeing those chips in the future as well.

I can definitely deal with those crispy purple striped ones.

Secondarys arnt released, so we don't normally have an idea of what we're gonna get. Those are the assumed secondary mint ones...

Secondary chips never put in play?

That does make sense. I think the very different inlay is what threw me off.

Yeah you don't usually see that. But it looks like this casino's rack is quirky.

 

[FDLmold]

I like a quirky rack.

I always feel bad for those guys at the end of rounders. I can't imagine this task.

Imagine the chips at the bottom of those barrels.... that’s a lot of weight they’re supporting

Hopefully it’s just primary $1s and snappers at the bottom of those barrels. Like clay bubble wrap.

It also means those chips had the farthest drop with the hardest impact. Poor chips.

i really don't get the rhc/thc mix, but thats definitely still possible. horseshoe baltimore has THC 1's but RHC everything else.

Same with the HS Cleveland’s.

Apparently they've been making many mistakes the last few years. Most of the newer racks in Vegas have similar small inlays!

 

[Thisfiendis138]

Anyone want to see what an open barrel of chips looks like?

 

[Marius L]

I was also fooled by that inlay size. Big bummer that those were not THC, but still looks like nice $1 chips. #color transfer

 

[krafticus]

I’m only going to order a barrel of chips on this sale...

Literally

 

[BirdCage]

Gives new meaning to “compression clay”!

Will these be priced based on their barrel depth?!

I think we will see the return of the $25/box of random damaged chips sale post from @TheChipRoom.

hopefully there aren’t too many that are broken.

 

[Parrothedd]

I doubt that the pressure exerted on the bottom chips, by the chips above, comes anywhere close to what they experience at “birth”.

 

[Rhodeman77]

I think it is more about being poured into the barrels and the bouncing/grinding against each other in the truck for many hours. Think of the chips we see that non chippers ship where the chips are dumped into a box and mailed. Hopefully it is a small % overall. But I’d expect a decent amount of flea bites on the secondary chips still.

I’m sure Jim will let us know if they ended up with flea bites from the packing/shipping process.

The ones that were thrown in on the very bottom will prolly be damaged. But anything above that will likely look just like these. Based on the numbers I’ve seen I would assume that the 5k’s and 25k’s were stored in the boxes. While everything else was just out in barrels. Either way there is going to be a lotttttttt of chips so I’d maybe expect like 5% to be damaged.

 

[AfterTheFact]

Depends on how they were “placed” in the barrel. If they were poured in I’d expect a lot more casualties.
