So, my wife laid down the law and told me that my chip obsession was out of control and that I had to get rid of some chips ( which I told her I would do) ...... then the mail came today...... I think somebody is in trouble. I actually think this is my biggest mail day to date.

Collect the mail while she is at work or have things shipped to your work address.

You're not alone. Wife is getting on my case too. Good thing I'm just finishing up a set and only have a CPC set on the docket.

You might want to contact a good lawyer before she gets home. . Damn dude your ass is in trouble! Make sure to hide all the frying pans and rolling pins before she gets home.

I am blessed with a partner who let's me spend however I want, as long as it's not from our funds.

..... So you all need to buy some cards....

Yup. She said as much to me in your kitchen regarding the slot machines. You are lucky. Mine looks at my chip sets and says, "So, which ones are you going to sell?"

You should have saw her face when I had my sets on the table... She just stared at them and said "but why...."

I'm glad she didn't ask how much they would be worth. Oh dear.....

[FordPickup92]

Yes

[Pinkdan]

Do you REALLY need all of those chips

Yesterday my 5 year old kids were trying to convince me why they needed more toys... so we had a big talk about money management and how important it was to only buy what we needed. Without skipping a beat they said: “then how come you have all those pokers daddy!?” Haha. (It’s so cute they call my poker chips “pokers)

I recently bought a house and am finally getting settled into my new poker room. I was able to get some recently acquired chips out of hiding. It seems I will need more racks...

So about those orange Protégés....

 

[Nuhockey]

Got this Button today from Rye Park Gaming. These buttons were ordered by the Wynn Casino in Las Vegas and are 60mm buttons. They were ordered right before the pandemic by the casino along with some Wynn poker tables. The Casino scrapped their plans and Rye Park bought the Tables along with the Buttons. They are a company that buys casino equipment from the Casinos directly. While I can’t 100% verify they were ordered by the casino in my mind I’m sure they are legit based on Rye Parks history in dealing with Casino used equipment. He still has 30-35 of these buttons available. While I overpaid by paying about $19 + shipping. These buttons could be had for $15 if you buy multiples.

 

[Jeff]

Button stack has grown significantly recently. These are the ones waiting to be scanned and put up on the shelves.

And I’m not hitting near as hard as @Nuhockey @Ben8257 and @Himewad ... they are button collecting animals. Happy there is quite a bit of new interest in Custom dealer buttons and people let collectors get a sample or two - another great part of the community!!!

 

[Pinkdan]

@pacmartine I’m blown away. Holding a piece of history... I can’t describe how happy I am to have these. You truly are an incredible person, thank you.

 

[pacmartine]

It was clearly good karma @Pinkdan!!!!
