Hello Chippers – I’m just back from vacation and trying to catch up with all the activity on the ChipBoard.
I had a chance to visit several casinos in Central Europe and thought you might enjoy seeing the results.
First stop was Budapest, Hungary where I picked up two different €1 chips – the “Las Vegas Casino Gold 2”
chip came from the Tropicana Casino and the “Las Vegas Casino Diamond 1” chip came from the Sofitel Hotel.
The next two chips are from Bratislava, Slovakia – the Olympic Casino is in the Carlton Hotel and the Banco Casino
is located in the Crowne Plaza Hotel.
By the way, this was a riverboat cruise along the Danube and our next stop was Vienna, Austria… the first chip
I picked up there was from the Concord Card Casino (CCC)… next the Bond Card Casino… and finally 2 different
chips from the Montesino – the regular rack chip and a 10th anniversary “Good Luck” chip.
Interesting side story here… the tournament manager at the Montesino is Andreas Daniel – the man who played
the dealer in the famous poker tournament sequence between James Bond and Le Chiffre in the 2006 movie Casino Royale.
And the last chip came from Casino Linz/Jackpot Casino in Linz, Austria… I believe this chip is in play at multiple
Casinos Austria locations around the country.
