Southern Indiana trip report

On the way to the trading session in Cincinatti I stopped at all 4 southern Indiana casinos. Here is what I found - Caesars has removed all of the light Blue roulettes and replaced them with the dark pink color. They also moved the high roller table style from what I call an "O" to the one that looks like a "Y". I still need the dark pink of this style.

Belterra hasn't changed much except for their new hotel and the room key that goes with it. I didn't get any traders unfortunately.

Grand Victoria has reopened their poker room and they are down to a total of 2 roulette tables. They are using the old Fluer de lis and new 9 dots (shown in scan)chips on these two tables.

Argosy has the same old design of roulette chips but the chips themselves seem to be newer. I didn't get any because I don't play roulette at $15 min per spin. They also had an invitational craps tournament going on that was using hot stamped chips that are not shown on the Chipguide. I heard that they are also used at the craps training sessions during the week. I could use a set if anyone has them.

Most of these casinos are now token free. I think it was Grand Victoria that was the only one that still had some token style machines left. I know that a dealer at the flea market I was at had LOTS of reel type slot machines for sale at rather reasonable prices. The dealer said he had hundreds of them.

The trading session in Cincinatti was great. Finaly got to meet Duke Eyeman and there were a total of about 10 of us there to trade with. I managed to get a few Silver Strike, roulettes, obsolete $5 Missisippi tokens and 20 or so regular and illegal club chips. Thanks again to Jim for setting this up and getting that $30 hotel rate.

Here are the roulettes I managed to get. I do have a set or two available for trade for roulettes I need from anywhere except AC.
