CHIP TIPS FOR CHIP COLLECTORS

COMMUNICATION AND THE LACK OF IT

THERE HAS BEEN A FEW TIMES I HAVE HAD A DESIRE TO SAY SOME INAPPROPRIATE THINGS.

1) NO ANSWER TO YOUR EMAIL OR QUESTIONS IN YOUR EMAIL; THIS CAN HAPPEN WHEN MAKING REQUESTS FOR ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS FROM A TRADER OR BUYER THAT APPARENTLY FALLS ON DEAF EARS, AND/OR THEY DO NOT READ THE FULL TEXT OF THE EMAIL. (I, MYSELF HAVE BEEN GUILTY OF THIS)

2) THEN THERE IS THE INDIVIDUAL THAT USES MORE THAN ONE EMAIL ADDY AND RARELY ANSWERS THE ONE USED FOR OUR BELOVED HOBBY CHIP COLLECTING.

3) THERE ARE ONE OR TWO INDIVIDUALS THAT ACTUALLY TRY TO USE UP YOUR TIME ON PURPOSE. THEY HAVE NO INTENTION OF BUYING, TRADING OR SELLING CHIPS THEY ARE REPRESENTING OR REQUESTING INFO ON. IF YOU ARE ONE OF THESE PEOPLE RATHER THAN LISTING YOUR NAMES AND EMBARASSING YOU, JUST KNOW; THAT YOU HAVE PRETTY MUCH RUN THE COURSE, WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE.

4) TRADING AND VALUING YOUR TRADE CHIPS FOR CHIPS BEING OFFERED. PLEASE DO NOT DE-VALUE OTHER PEOPLES CHIPS AND ELEVATE THE VALUE OF YOURS WHILE TRADING, SOME OF US KNOW THE REAL AND ACTUAL VALUE OF CHIPS. HERE ARE THREE THAT A POTENTIAL TRADER SAID WERE EASY TO GET AND WERE DE-VALUED WHILE TRADING:

Four Queens $1 Tax Day
Mandalay Bay $1 Year of the Goat
O'Sheas $1 70th anniversary

THESE WERE THOUGHT TO BE NOTHING MORE THAN COMMONS. THEY ARE WORTH MORE THAN $1 EA.

5) THEN THERE IS THE ONCE IN A GREAT WHILE AN IMPULSE BUYER THAT MAKES AN ORDER, AND TIME GOES BY; MULTI EMAILS ARE SENT, AND THEY FINALLY RESPOND (OR NEVER DO)AND TELL YOU THEY HAVE DECIDED TO PASS ON THE AFOREMENTIONED PURCHASE.

IF YOU HAVE SOME PET PEEVE’S THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD TO THIS LIST, SEND THEM TO ME AND I WILL ADD THEM TO THIS LIST…REGGIE

A GUEST AUTHOR’s HARVEST STORY

SAN RAFAEL CLUB (881 CLUB) SAN RAFAEL, CA

J Eric Freedner


Hi, Reggie,

Here is another chipping story, all true of course!

I had heard that it was difficult to buy a chip from the San Rafael Club in San Rafael; it was a small cardroom, limited hours, and management did not favor selling to collectors. Still, toward the end of one of my chip trips to the Petaluma area several years ago, I decided to give it a try. I had gotten the club address before starting my trip, which is fortunate because the 881 Club is not at number 881 on any street any more. My internet search led me to a brief history of the club, started by Pete Pellolio years ago.

Upon entering the building, I paused in the foyer between the bar and the cardroom to look at a portrait on the wall. Unexpectedly, a man came to the cardroom doorway and asked, "May I help you?"

"Is this Pete?" I said somewhat absent-mindedly, pointing to the portrait. "Yes," he replied, "Did you know Pete?"

"No," I replied, "but I heard he had started the club years ago, and kept the business going for many years, and was respected in the community."

"Want to play some cards?" the man asked.

"Actually, no; I was wondering if I could just buy a few chips, I collect them."

The man gave a non-committal look and then smiled. "We have a strict policy, no sales to collectors. But since you spoke so highly of my father, I can sell you a few."

My visit ended with a hearty handshake and a smile from the new owner, and his invitation to "come back any time." And a few of the elusive Club San Rafael chips in my pocket.

Sometimes, it pays to admire the artwork.

Don't have time to drive up to San Rafael to see Pete's portrait? I didn't know this chip existed at the time, but you can view it here: ChipGuide # CG 023545.

PERSONAL HARVESTING STORIES

CAT’S PAW CARDROOM BOZEMAN, MONTANA

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

MONTANA IS FAMOUS FOR ITS’ ONE TABLE CARDROOMS. WHEN I FIRST WALKED INTO THIS CARDROOM IT WAS USING SOME WILD BILL HICKOK GENERICS. THE 2ND TIME I WALKED IN THERE THEY HAD THE CURRENT CAT’S PAW CHIPS “GOT THE NUTS” VERSION. THOSE ARE THE COOLEST CHIPS, ALMOST AS COOL AS THE DOC & EDDY’S “COOL CAT”.
THE CHALLENGE CAME WHEN I CAME IN THE SECOND TIME AND ASKED TO BUY SOME CHIPS WHILE I WAITED TO PLAY. IT WAS A DEFINITE NO. BUT, THE YOUNG MAN THAT WAS RUNNING THE GAME WAS APPARENTLY HALF OWNER OF THE CARDROOM. SO WHILE I BLED A SLOW DEATH AND DROPPED 3 BILLS PLAYING POKER I KEPT WORKING ON HIM, GIVING HIM THE SPIEL THAT EACH CHIP IS AN ADVERTISING TOOL, ETC. HE FINALLY SAID SEE ME BEFORE YOU LEAVE I’LL SEE WHAT I CAN DO.
THIS IS A GOOD TIME TO INJECT SOMETHING THAT I HAVE FOUND IN MY LATER TRAVELS TO MONTANA TO BE TRUE. THE AVERAGE POKER PLAYER IN MONTANA IS A LOT BETTER THAN THE AVERAGE POKER PLAYER FROM ALMOST ANY WHERE. “THAT’S MY STORY AND I AM STICKING TO IT…LOL”
ANYWAY WHEN I HAD ENOUGH OF THE MONTANA POKER HOSPITALITY, I GOT UP AND SAID I’M READY TO HEAD OUT. HE SAID WELL HOW MANY CHIPS DO YOU WANT, I SAID WELL I WOULD LIKE 30 $1’S AND 4 $5’S, HE LOOKED AT ME KIND OF FUNNY AND HE SAID, OK YOU PAID YOUR DUES TONIGHT. AND THEN HE COUNTED THEM OUT FOR ME, AND I FLIPPED HIM A $50 BILL. I DID GET ENOUGH THIS TIME.
