Alas their life as an ES 20 has come to an end - time to peel the labels out. Only decision left is whether to use the Rio or the Bally’s in the $1 slot, I’m honestly torn.

Use the Bally’s 100%. You’d be mad not to*



* sell me the Rio’s sell me the Rio’s sell me the Rio’s
 
Had an uncommon Sunday delivery.

I have big plans for these big racks!

No joke, I’m thinking about it. I like the pop of blue in the Bally’s, but I don’t love that the flamingo is so similar. So maybe Bally’s for 1/2 games, Rio for frac games :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:.
While the blue seems to pop more, and they obviously both look great in the lineups, I actually like the Rio's more and the addition of the (minimal) grey to the mix.
 
Also, dibs on these, thx.
Our Lady Lucks are not going anywhere buddy!! I have 190 more to clean when I get home and about 300 left to oil total and these will be ready to rack up and be added to the rotation Finally!! 20 player 10K set with about 4 rebuys... Very happy we managed to put together that size set of these! There just aren't enough Spotted Tourney Hos Stamp sets to go around.

Pretty cool set, haven't seen too many!

10 of the 10k sets were released in the sale, 3 members have managed to account for 8 of them now. I think there are only 2 of the original sets floating around in the wild now. Pretty awesome to see the community come together and really make a few truly playable sets of these. Aztars are never going to be an option for us, and really the LL, Aztars, Grand Cardroom and AS Tourney chips are the only spotted Paulson HS tourney sets I know of in playable quantities... maybe there is another one out there but it would truly be rare and most likely one of a kind!

Is that because casino's rarely use spotted hot stamps are just a reflection of how few casino's have made quantities available on the secondary markets?

I am no pro on this issue, I believe it is because Hot Stamps do not hold up well with high levels of usage so most go with inlaid chips. There are a few solid Hot Stamp sets out there, I think many go with the standard solids because of price and for the most part unless they are a really large casino the don't make a ton of revenue off running tourneys. Also I feel like security is less of an issue with Tourney chips than value chips.
