I've been going to the Convention since 2008 and still, only a couple of people know or recognize me. I wasn't able to go this year, but, I know how fun it can be! So don't feel bad, just keep coming... or going to the conventions, keep posting on the ChipBoard, keep collecting, etc. I have a feeling next year's convention will be much better than this years'... because I will be attending again! Only this time, I will try to attend the trade sessions and maybe even play in the poker tournament.

This year has been bad for me in regards to chip collecting. So far this year, I have only picked up two chips for my collection. However, three more chips are on their way to me now. I probably could have picked up 4 ~ 5 chips more if I attended the convention.
