I think I have the first edition of the CA book by Mel and Armin. Has it been updated?
I just got a box of assorted chips. Some are advertising, some Paulson samples, some Poker Store samples, and a few Langworthy salesman chips. Pretty neat.
But when I got to the CA chips I found the Bermuda Triangle of UFCs. The easy ones, were all in the books, but then I found sets that were all the wrong colors. Chips that were listed as no chip from this location known. (a few of those)
To make it easy on you and me too, almost all are ONE OF A KIND unless I give the numbers. The most I have of any chips in the following messages are five of the Hot Pink with brown inserts Card Club Inc. Oceanside. Four from AL's, but as far as I can see, only one duplicate. The next chip down from that I have two of the plain mold CW. After that, it's 15 of a chip that no one cares about and five of some worn out old dogs from Bicycle Club.
This image is what may be a collection of chip samples from the Poker Store. The "RIK" blue is a 10c and the "AZ" is a 5c. All are the same mold and like new.
Are they known sample chips, or is the San Juan real?
