I do like the starlites too, but never played with lakeshores. Will be a first this weekend. Looking forward to those. Leaded paulsons r in a league of their own.I have and still think they belong far, far down on that list.
Nah, I can't afford Giraffes and any play I'm gonna make will only benefit ME! MYAH!Is this just a ploy to make ww sell his giraffes?
Need to up your game though. LCO over giraffes? That must be the worst bluff of the day
Sometimes a developer comes knocking on your door...
- [Builder]: "I want to buy your house."
- [Me]: "Sorry, it's not for sale. We just finished remodeling, we love the school districts here, we just finished installing solar panels and this new paver stone driveway. We love it here. Go find another house. It's not for sale."
- [Builder]: "But I really need your house. I'm building a spaceship themed office building for Apple, and your house is right in the middle of it."
- [Me]: "Sorry, but it's not for sale."
- [Builder]: "What's your price?"
- [Me]: "Sorry, but like I said. It's not for sale."
- [Builder]: "Give me a price. Everyone has a price."
- [Me]: "Fine"... looks up Zillow/Redfin prices, adds enough money that will surely make the developer cry and look for a new location to build his spaceship, then demands a motorhome and a college scholarship for my daughter on top of that, oh and free food for life at the spaceship cafe. Oh, and a fucking yacht too goddamit!
- [Builder]: "OK, consider it done."
- [Me]: ...

How can you insinuate, or even THINK something like this!Is this just a ploy to make ww sell his giraffes?
Perfect choice! That set just got more amazing!!!
The lineup itself is great and so is this particular set but the fact that all the other $5s outside of this and I think one other set, are nicked up tires, drops it at least half a letter grade for me.

I used to work in the casino industry. I'm pretty sure the reason that the nicks/flea bites on the $1s/$5s are deeper than they are for any of the higher denom chips is because they're used as tokes (tips). When a dealer receives a chip as a tip from a player, it is customary in many regions for the dealer to 'say thank you' by taking the chip, turning it sideways, and tapping it against the edge of the toke box before dropping it inside. It makes a loudish noise and is usually accompanied by a head nod or a verbal 'thank you' and is the dealer's way of acknowledging the tip (and may have originally started as a gesture for the cameras). Many dealers perform this custom pretty aggressively, effectively slamming the edges of the chip into the sharp metal edges of the toke box. Over time, it can make these chips look like they've been sucked up by a lawnmower. The same thing happened to the $1s from Horseshoe Cleveland. I explained this to people back when the HS chip room sale happened a few years ago, when they were all asking about those being so beat up, but I just got a bunch of eye rolls from people. Anyhow, it's definitely the reason for specific denoms being beaten up and not others from many casinos in the US. Which casinos and regions that applies to, I don't know though.
Ya, I'm just now realizing that. Could you please tell him to get out of the fucking champagne room for me? This dude won't leave!Shit! And here I thought it was my inimitable charm. Don’t bang up that yacht. Diddy used to own it.
So Krish what’s your top 3 now?
I would be:
1. Lakeshores
2. Starlite
3. Giraffes
and more importantly, what’s next?
I'm pretty sure you didn't mean to put Empress on there.Don’t have a ranking yet. I like them all for different reasons. My life would be emptier without each.
In terms of what’s next, my current want list includes a ton of stuff, but these notably:
Empress Joliet set
Casablanca (THC) set
Ambassador Plaza set
PCA secondary set
Claim Stake set
Silver Strike set
no mistake. like everyone else he will be wanting that bear claw hundo
TFW you see your wanted chips in the list too
This guy fucks.
