The casino had chairs that were embroided with the exact graphics as the chips.
There were key fobs also with the same graphic and size of the $1 chip which I gave away here.
All chips and tokens that were delivered to the Club Royale were on board. There was only a small on-shore office.
Just days before the storm gold tokens were delivered; they, too, were kept in the on-board vault.
Mark Lighterman has some estimated counts as to what walked during the short 30-day operation.
Very few chip collectors were on the ship. I played twice, at most.
The day after the ship was lost I called their office asking what chips they have. Response was none.
Some here decided to speculate inventory was in the office. Not so.
I then called Michael at Summit Casino Supply. I was told they only had one example of each denomination.
I placed wanted ads in local newspapers asking for chips.
The contacted local players and bought what they had.
There was so much misinformation tossed about regarding inventory washed up on beach.
