I think rimming is … something else.

It is but please don’t ask how I know

Edit: I learned from the urban dictionary for all you dirty minds out there

One of my other obsessions is books. So a book about casino history? Yes please. But specifically about the Riverside Reno?

Synergy!

Hat tip to @Ben8257.

Got a few chips today. Thanks for helping me with this one @ImCrossland . Triston sold me some chips and was kind enough to do some chip order consolidation for me. . .

Got some Faded Spade WPTs. .

Got these DEAD MINT HS Cincinnati $100s. Absolutely stunning in person. The arc yellow spot really speaks out...not sure yet what I'll do with these. I wanted a rack and I'll definitely keep it. Got these direct from Todd at @The Chip Exchange . . .

Special extra thanks and shout out to @Thisfiendis138 . Thanks for putting on the little contest, helped me land these super cool Overlook samples..simply stunning brother. Jamie, you did a fine job on these..wow!

I can't really explain why I am still receiving these despite selling them just a few days ago. That's how much of a chip whore I have been. It's a real sickness! No doubt I'm in need of a psychiatric evaluation. Thanks to @joeyshin and @ImCrossland for these. . .

Also got some more of these AMAZING chips. Empress Joliet $5 Secondary, absolutely MINT. These will fit nicely with my hoard of minty $5s. I've got way MOAR than I should, but then, when does way MOAR, become way MORE? Thanks to @StackemHigh

And I will absolutely treasure this NC $20... definitely more than I've spent on any TRK single so far, but happy to have it ...thanks to @Chippy McChiperson

Got 4 decks of Bicycle Prestige, thanks @BNM! The shipping box had a big dent in the corner, but the decks were very well packed, so no damage:

The decks were so well packed that the cellophane ripped a little when I unwrapped them. (Not a big deal since they're not staying in the cellophane; just want to print out some tuck boxes for them first.) I compared them to the 2012 WSOP Fournier decks I have, and I have to say the fronts of both feel pretty identical, but the back of the Prestige cards feel a little more textured.

These are my first deck of non-paper non-cheapo poker-size cards; after using bridge for so long, it feels kinda weird handling the larger cards.

Also, I know Modia(no!) is a four-letter word here, but I found these two decks on eBay at a bit of a discount, so I figure I'd pick them up. These are 4-pip bridge size. Haven't removed the cellophane yet.

I'm assuming these are PVC (since they're not Platinum Acetates), so I wonder how they'll feel compared to the other 100% plastic cards I have (Copags, Fourniers). Will see at my next live game. (Also will see how my poker buddies react to 4-pip decks!)

This is my chips on your computer screen

Thank you @allforcharity for the 50 beautiful perfect/mint true radiant red CDI98 $5s! They are a perfect match for my other 50! Rack of $500s will be on there way soon. Just need 60 of the CDI98 $1Ks and I can call my set complete.

Thanks @Nanook for the Park Place sample sets!

Yea. I’m not into that shit!!!

Sickness. At least I sent more out than in today!!!

 

[WedgeRock]

Another 2002 chip arrived at the orphanage, via eBay. That makes 43 total; 31 from 2002 and 12 from 2004.

Woot Woot!
A long awaited mail day! I now have an MSK boner again. Can’t wait for the GB delivery.

These are the plaques for a CPC set Ive ordered on the FDL. I loved the idea and reworked it and now can’t wait for the next run at CPC.

These Sam's Town $1s are something else... I'm speechless. There's no way I can murder these

Finally tracked down the two barrels of these I needed, they’re stunning in person!

 

[BearMetal]

Big thanks to @Percy7 ... This giveaway was awesome and they arrived during Hanukkah! The girls are gonna love them when they open their gift tonight. And by "love" I mean "scratch and punch each other" trying to get the fairy they want.

Confirmed fuschia edge spots. Confirmed fire AF. These should clean up nicely.
