Hi everyone. !

Well its this time again when the hobby doesn't excite me too much.

I had a couple of friends call me last night , and they informed me of a couple of people spreading rumors about me. I guess I was deposed to chancel my shows or take the consequences. I warned if you go against certain people they will play dirty. And it kinds hurts being bad mouthed. And its very childish. Everybody says how righteous some people are. But I can list a lot of chips that have been sold for high prices and then were really available by the boxes. Or I seen mentioned several times how bill and Charlie started the superbowl show. Charlie is probably the biggest provider of supplies in the country.
And anybody who has ever met the man knows he is one of the nicest guys in the hobby. Now he started the superbowl show also. Charlie does every show in vegas and ca . The only shows he doesn't do is gamingtimes shows. I wonder why. Must of been because he was treated way to fair or way to nice and he just couldn't take it anymore.

You know I could say a million things. But I won't . I WILL NOT LOWER myself into the fighting war. I won't even replied to attacks I am going to get from this message. If you have a serious question you can emails me at rene@vegaschips.com or call me at 702-432-6205 and I be more than happy to answer it.

Now What I would like to do is clarify a couple of rumors.

1.
Some people say that I will not do a superbowl show. And that it is almost for sure I will chancel my show. Since I don't want to compete. Now this is the biggest BS I heard so far. Yeah I think its sad we have 2 shows during the same weekend. But I announced my show first. Let me make it clear. There is a better chance of World War 3 to start then me canceling my show. THIS WILL NEVER EVER HAPPEN, despite what some people to claim .

2. Another rumor going around is that my show was only successful because of all the hard work that has been done in the past. And it had nothing to do with my work. Well the shows in the past were good but they never got more than about 300 people in attendance. Now My show was done on a short notice . And we has almost 900 people there.
That is almost 3 times the attendance. And we did compile a mailing list. And 85% of these people don't even belong to the club. So go figure. And don't take this the wrong way. I am not trying to brag and I am just clarifying something. I thing there is a lot of stuff I can and Will do better on my future shows.

3.
Someone mention that I am panning and asking for help to advertise my show. And it shows how worried I am . Again another rumor. As you know I asked and gotten a lot of help last show also. People like : Josh Shore, Chuck Smorse, Steve Cutler, Rick Olsen, Bill Judge, Ct Rodgers, Steve Zacchi, Janel , Andy Hughes, Pete Rizzo, Ralph Myers and many more I can't think of now have helped to to advertise my last show. And last time everything happened so quick I didn't have the time to properly recognize them. So this time we are setting up a hall of fame and give them a very limited casino chip. Just to say thank you and I appreciate their help. AND THAT IS THE ONLY REASON.

4.
Some people say my show was only good because it was superbowl weekend. And my next show will be terrible and I will never get 800+ people again.
Well again 70% of my attendance was local people. And I do have a nice mailing list. And we are going to do a lot more advertising this time. And even more running around pushing this show.
You are right we will not do 800 people again. Anything under 1000 people I will consider a failure in my mind.

If people think by spreading rumors and lies about me it will make me feel little and make me want to quit they obviously don't know me . All that does is upsets me .
And not instead of giving 100% I will give 200%.

Well I am sorry this post was so long. I just get mad when I hear flat out lies. Like I said I won't even reply to messages on here. If you really want to know something and not just wanting to insult me then please do email me or call me and I be more than happy to answer any questions.

And don't forget just because you hear it somewhere doesn't make it true.

Best Regards
Rene
