OMG, those are outstanding. Have never seen them before. Wish I had never seen them. I will dream of them forever.
The dream is to build a MTT T10,000 starting stack set with all 4v418 spotting. Toughest part will be getting purple THC $500s with 4v418 (cough cough Copa $500s cough cough @colter ripton :tup:)
 
Great to see others who picked up this 43mm set. I am awaiting my set in the mail. Already hatching plans for a T1k chip relabel (will be limited in inlay size but I think it will still work).
And right after posting this I got notification I had a package in!

I am like a kid in a candy store right now. I realize these chips aren't everyone's taste but I love them.

I am also surprised nobody has mentioned (or I have missed it), the mint Chinese new year Lucky 21 $5 chips.

I figured since I use my poker winnings to buy poker chips that I should invest some of my sports betting winnings into something sports related... So, these showed up in the mail today! :)

I always wanted these cards as a kid but couldn't afford them. Pretty stoked about these!

GRIFFEY!!!!

One of the only bright spots in Mariner’s history.

Ya, there haven't been many good ones for the Ms. I'm a huge baseball fan and generally love all things Seattle sports, but I don't care much for the Mariners. They burned me as a fan way too many times when I was young. However, they did have the most dominant pitcher who ever lived in Randy Johnson, the (in his prime) single greatest player who ever lived in Griffey Jr. (although Trout might surpass him one day), and the greatest shortstop who ever lived in Alex Rodriguez. That's has to be the single best pairing of any 3 players to ever be on the same team at the same time (Mantle era Yankees were better overall obviously, but even their best top 3 couldn't touch A-Rod, Griffey Jr., and the Big Unit). And no, I haven't forgotten about how dominant Sandy "the left arm of God" Koufax was or how insanely great Willie Mays was either.

Oh, and guys like Honus Wagner, Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, and Christy Mathewson don't count. They played against guys like me while the negro leagues were stacked with all the talent which basically got ignored.

Oh, and I got this card in the mail too :)

How much was the Jordan? I had the other two but never had a Jordan. Maybe I should buy one....
 
I did say "one of the..."

I count Griffey, Edgar, and Dave Niehaus. That's it.
42 years, and that's it. That's pathetic.

Edit: OK, Randy Johnson and King Felix, I guess.

Randy Johnson, you guess??? Show some love Mel! He is hands down, the greatest pitcher who ever lived. I don't think that one is disputable. You can make a case that Ruth, Mays and/or Mantle were better than Griffey, but I don't think anyone can say that Randy Johnson wasn't the greatest pitcher who ever lived without sounding foolish.


The guy killed a dove with a slider ffs!! :ROFL: :ROFLMAO: :ROFL: :ROFLMAO: :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

Sorry. I have some very strong hatred of the home town team. I feel like they don't even want to win. Seriously. Is the team profitable? Cool. Goal achieved. Blah. Can't develop offensive prospects (or even draft them) to save their lives. I'd argue, the worst baseball franchise in history. Hate 'em.

But Griffey was awesome. And yeah, Randy was incredible too. But the M's? Pathetic.

OK, sorry to derail the thread.

Back to the mail deliveries....Nice pick-ups @RainmanTrail !!!
