Hello Rick,

We talked about this a lot when those chips first came out in Jan. Gene Trimble seemed to know a lot about it. This seller always seems to be on the ball and is selling them for $10, so don't pay over that. You might want to compare shipping.

I think what the Hilton tried was that they put some kind of electronic system in the railing around say a blackjack table. Then as people bought chips, won chips and lost chips, the computer would keep track of how much they played/lost. Sort of took the Pit Boss out of the equation. I guess the idea was to get accurate info on their good customers and such. Getting rated by a Pit Boss isn't accurate at all. I'm not sure it succeeded or failed. Gene and others seemed to think that if it succeeded, that many other casinos would switch over to these new chips. That would be lots of new chips for us! :o)

VIva Las Vegas,

Byron :)
