Chip Name: ALL IN (30th Anniversary)

Steve made the "ALL IN" personal chip because
"Obviously, it's for our 30th anniversary. The picture inside the heart was from our wedding day.
I wasn't sure what I wanted on the back side, but cards in general and poker especially had always been a part of our lives.

When we bought our house we needed a washer and dryer.
I was in a bowling league, and after the prize money was handed out at the end of the season,
I had enough to buy a used washer, but not a dryer.
We always played poker after the banquet, so I played until I had won enough to buy a NEW washer and dryer.
My wife never complained about poker night after that!

I used the King and Queen of hearts to represent the two of us, and of course, since it was a poker theme, they had to wear sunglasses.
The "all-in" is the poker version of "till death do us part".
On the side is written "because I fooled around and fell in love"
This was from a song in the 70's, which was kinda my song.
I told every girl I met that there was no way I was getting serious, at least until I was 30, until I met the one girl who didn't believe me.

Debbie Meister designed this chip and did a fantastic job."
