Doug Saito in "Chip Chat" some time ago about this chip. Can't remember right now if it is "Little Club" or "Little Casino". Funny thing about that chip is that was my very first ever convention chip purchase -- bought from Mr. Saito himself -- as a "Low Cost Games" chip. When I bought it, Doug was joking that it was a "Louisiana Club" chip followed by his trademark smile & laugh. Heck -- I didn't know what the "Louisiana Club" was, so I just nodded & said "Okay...I'll buy it." It was at that point that Mr. Saito figured out that I knew NOTHING about chips & then very seriously explained to me that it was NOT from the "Louisiana Club". Whatever...it was a $5 Las Vegas chip that I didn't have (in 2001, I started out doing what you are doing -- trying to get a $5 denomination chip from every Vegas casino, open or closed).
I have three casino chips in my collection that I will NEVER get rid of -- that's one of them.
