A few words on errors in type, or any other problems with my text or spelling, even though I use spell-check, I miss quite a few in all of the pages I compose. Please, Please, shoot me an email and let me know what I did. I may never know if you do not let me know.
I know I miss putting prices on some items, and even though you are not interested please let me know. Sometimes it takes an entire cycle of 2-3 months before I discover some of my mistakes and that is way too long
There are a few chippers out there that do point out the blatant errors; kudos and a high 5 to you, you know who you are so I won’t embarrass anyone by naming them in this little “info commercial”, lol. Thanks for doing this.
Sincerely
Reggie

In the last week of May 2016, an inquiry appeared on the Chip Board regarding the Choctaw Casino in McAlester, Oklahoma. A request was made for a chip from their tables.
As one who does not care for slots, and who has made the trip between Dallas and points in Missouri on a pretty regular basis over the last several years, I have had occasion to look in on the numerous Choctaw Casino locations that populate the sides of US Highway 69 through Oklahoma. I recalled that the last time I stopped, none of them had table games except their main location in Durant. However, the member directed me to their website, which indicates that the McAlester location does have table games.
On the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend, having offered to pick up chips for other collectors, which resulted in about half a dozen requests for one or more chips from the place, I drove the two and a half hours to McAlester with my wife and sister for company. Along the way we passed by the Choctaw Casino Resort in Durant, with its multi-storey hotel, blackjack, roulette, craps, baccarat, poker variants, and slots, where we would normally stop. However, our destination was another 75 miles farther up the highway. Between Durant and McAlester are also several truck stop locations equipped with electronic slots operating under the Choctaw Casino umbrella. As we approached McAlester, we finally entered the address into the GPS – my sister on her phone, I on my Magellan. Both agreed that the casino was about five minutes farther north than it actually is. Do not let yours fool you: the McAlester Choctaw Casino is actually located on the South end of town, where Business US69 splits off from US69, on the northbound side of the highway.
Because we could find no address numbers on the building, my sister ran inside to make certain that we had found the right place, that this wasn’t just another satellite location. She came back out and reported that this was it, that they have a couple of tables that open at 4:00 against the back wall, and that she was assured the next nearest casino of any kind is about 30 miles away. I parked and we all went in to register for cards and have a bit of fun. We learned that, in addition to two blackjack tables, they have one three-card poker table, which opens at 5:30. There are, of course, also a mess of electronic slots.
I went immediately to the blackjack table, which had opened about fifteen minutes prior to our arrival, and told the dealer and pit boss that I am a collector of chips, a member of a chip collectors’ club, and that we had no information about the chips in use at this casino. I said I would want first to buy a $500 chip to take aside and document, then return to break it up first into chips to bring home for distribution among several collectors, and then chips to actually play at the table. I told them that when last I visited, they didn’t have table games. The pit boss said that they have had the tables for maybe eight or nine years. I realized then that the last time I had been there was on the drive to Sarcoxie, Missouri, in January 2006, for my uncle’s funeral. Ten years ago.
They thought it was cool that there is such a thing as chip collectors, and I showed them on my phone pictures of some of the chips in my collection. I also opened the ChipGuide, and showed them that the only information we had on McAlester was a TITO. At this point, the pit boss said, "Perhaps I should warn you, though, that we use chips from Durant.”
Poof! That sucked the wind out of my sails! What? I didn't think that was even allowed! Chips are supposed to name the casino and location where they are used! I pulled up the ChipGuide on the phone again, went to the Choctaw Durant page, and showed him the chips catalogued there. He pointed at the wave chips, those of designs listed as CG018453 and similar. “That’s what we use. They even still say Durant on them, not McAlester.” These chips are three generations behind the Game On chips in current use at Durant. The only exception is the $500 chip. They use the same chip that is currently in use down the highway, leading us to believe that there was never a purple wave design chip.
On the bright side, we discovered that the $100 wave chip had not yet been photographed and posted to the Durant page. The dealer looked through the rack and came up with one of their better condition blacks, which I purchased and photographed down near the soda dispenser. Sadly, because they are using these ancient chips, even the best looks shabby.
Well, I e-mailed everyone who had asked for chips, advising them that there were no unknown new chips here, and that I would not get any or hold anyone to their prior requests, unless they got back in touch and said to get them anyway. Just to be sure, I bought a handful of chips to bring to Vegas for anyone who might not have the old (and formerly hard to get) Durant chips yet. It never hurts to have trading goods.
I also left the table about $40 ahead.

CARSON VALLEY INN IS RIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY ABOUT HALF WAY BETWEEN TOPAZ LAKE AND CARSON CITY ON HIGHWAY 395. USUALLY I JUST DRIVE BY THIS CASINO BUT I HAD A HARVEST MISSION THERE THIS TRIP. THEY HAD A SERIES OF COLLECTOR $5 CHIPS, AND THIS WAS FEW YEARS BACK, WHEN I WAS HEAVY INTO COLLECTING ANY CHIP THAT HAD A CARD IMAGE ON IT.
IT WAS FAIRLY EARLY IN THE DAY, I HAD JUST LEFT RENO AND WAS HEADING BACK TO SAN DIEGO AND WAS GETTING HUNGRY. CARSON VALLEY INN HAD A NEAT LITTLE COFFEE SHOP THAT REALLY LOADED YOUR PLATE UP, ALTHOUGH I DID NOT KNOW THAT AT THE TIME I WALKED IN THERE. WHEN I WADDLED OUT TOWARD THE CASINO FLOOR IT WAS QUITE EMPTY. THE USUAL MORNING SCENE PREVAILED, ONE BLACK JACK DEALER ONE PIT BOSS AND ONE CHANGE PERSON FOR THE WHOLE CASINO. THE PIT BOSS HAD FINISHED HIS MORNING PAPER AND WAS LOOKING FOR THINGS TO DO, WHEN I WALKED UP AND ASKED HIM ABOUT THEIR $5 COLLECTOR SERIES CHIPS. HE SAID YEAH WE STILL HAVE QUITE A FEW OF THEM, AND GAVE THE HIGH SIGN TO HIS DEALER TO INDICATE IT WAS OK TO START SPREADING OUT THE $5’S ROW BY ROW. WELL, WE FOUND ABOUT 6 OR 7 AS I REMEMBER OF THE $5’S THAT I DID NOT HAVE IN NO TIME, AND I BOUGHT A HANDFUL OF $1 CHIPS TO BALANCE OUT THE BILL TO A $50 PURCHASE, TIPPED THE DEALER AND TOLD HIM TO BUY THE BOSS A CUP OF COFFEE OR WHATEVER AND WINKED AT HIM.
THIS WHOLE HARVEST WAS EXTREMELY PLEASANT AND FUN, SURE WISHED THEY ALL WENT AS SMOOTH AS THIS ONE DID. AND YES I DID GET ENOUGH AT THIS HARVEST…REGGIE
