Here is an example of a matchbook for a club that has no identified chips - at least in the Chip Guide. This place has intrigued me for a long time. It was located at 1029 W. Capitol Ave, West Sacramento CA. Inside the cover it says the Poker Room is open 24 Hours a day. It has a modern nine digit numeric phone number. I think there was a whole string of El Rancho hotel/motels in California - at least I think there was one near the freeway in Fresno and/or Bakersfield. I think the windmill tower matches the early one at the El Rancho in Las Vegas. Did Lloyd Hickey have any ownership in the Las Vegas place?
I will submit this to the Chip Guide and maybe someone will find some chips from the place.
