[Godzilla28]

Starting Stacks at Sunday 2pm Ring Event

Final Tabled but came in 9th after Deuces cracked my Cowboys.

Chips harvested at Harvey's Tahoe, Hard Rock Tahoe, Harrah's Reno and Stones Gambling Hall in Citrus Heights

Nice score at the Stones $1/$2 table to end the week.

Sorry for the poor phone cam pictures but hope you enjoy the pron of my WSOP circuit run.

The Tavern & Saloon low denom chips are all nice spot patterns worth harvesting for relabel possibilities. Wish more casinos/places bothered to have nice chips made these days.

I got 2 barrels of $2 drop chips from the Stones...they are getting stingier but I only needed 2 barrels to complete my rack.

I will be going to Rainman's game more often now that my schedule has cleared a bit. Hope to see you there and some of your legendary sets.

Cool pics and nice run getting to the final table. Those Reno hot stamped chips are amazing looking!

Those $2 chips are very nice.

Nice work! (y) :thumbsup:

Curious what your harvesting technique was?

Next time the Kings need to hold up. ;-) Would love a rack of those Saloon $1s for my OFCP set. PM me if you think you could snag one!

Yes, I would definitely be up for a rack of those! @Godzilla28

Lots of groveling and begging...LOL seriously, last trip to Vegas, I got 5 brand new racks from the cage. I usually play a little slots or Black Jack. (I find the cashiers are a little hesitant if you just go up and ask for new chips) And when I go to cage to cashout, I strike up light conversation which leads to "By the way, I'm building this blah, blah, blah set of chips to play with, can you help me with it. I'll need a lot of new chips." And then smile.

I find this works with most casinos if they have new chips in the back. The only one that was really stingy was Hard Rock Tahoe, Paris Paris, and Fremont Hotel and Casino in downtown LV.

If they give you what you want and you're grinning from ear to ear then leave them a nice tip. I have heard people here giving $20 tips but I think that is a bit overboard. I usually give $2-5 for a barrel and $5-10 for a rack or two. The cashiers are very happy with this tip so win win for everyone.

Hope this helps.

I do have a few racks of the Tavern $1 chips when they opened 2 1/2 years ago. They are new and have never seen any play. The $1 chips at the casino are a bit used and rounded now. If you guys have anything to trade especially from Signature, PM me.

Those Reno Harrah's stamped 1s are awesome. Niceshot harvested 2 racks for me last year that are almost new. I'd trade those for Stone's ones.

 

[RainmanTrail]

I need to get me some of those Harrah's $1s

 

[Anthony]

Those Harrahs $1 chips...

You'd have to mill them to use a label. Can't support destroying the only 814 hot stamp $1 I've seen. However, if you find me 200 of those Stone's $1s, mine are available.
