IF ANY OF YOU WANT ANY INSIDE INFORMATION ON ANY CASINO THAT I’VE BEEN TO, I WOULD BE HAPPY TO TELL YOU WHAT AMASS FORTUNES AND OTHER’S, WELL THEY JUST LIKE TO WRITE STORIES. YEAH, THAT WOULD BE ME. I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED TO WRITE I KNOW.

PERSONAL HARVESTING STORIES

BARONA RESORT & CASINO LAKESIDE, CA

THIS IS PROBABLY ONE OF MY FIRST VISITS TO BARONA’S WHEN THEY STILL HAD THE BIG TOP TENT CASINO.
EVEN WHILE THEY HAD THE BIG TOP THEY HAD MOVED THE POKER TWO TIMES TO MY KNOWLEDGE. IT FIRST WAS IN THE PIT WHEN I ARRIVED, AND LATER THEY MOVED IT UP BY THE NORTH DOOR ENTRANCE.
AT THIS TIME THEY HAD NOT CHANGED THEIR RACKS OUT FROM THE GREEN CHIPS WITH FOUR BLACK INSERTS. ON A SIDE NOTE, HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A BLIND POKER PLAYER IN A AN ACTUAL POKER GAME? WELL, WHITEY WAS LEGALLY BLIND, NOW HE COULD SEE WHAT HE HAD BY HOLDING THE TWO CARDS UP CLOSE TO HIS EYES, HOWEVER; EVER FLOP,TURN AND RIVER CARD HAD TO BE CALLED OUT TO WHITEY, AND REPEATED AS NEEDED. NO COMMENT. BACK TO THE HARVEST, I AM NOT SURE HOW THESE 5 MOLDS WERE RELEASED BUT I AM PRETTY SURE THE PAULEN’S WERE THE LAST ONES AND MOST PREVALENT ON THE TABLE WHILE I WAS THERE.
I SPENT MY TIME WHILE PLAYING AND WAITING ON WHITEY GOING THROUGH THE GREEN CHIPS LOOKING FOR: B&S, HHR, BAR-SUITS, OR TRI-CLUB’S. IT WAS LONG AGO, I DO NOT REMEMBER HOW MANY I WAS ABLE TO CULL OUT AT THAT TIME, NOT ENOUGH THOUGH.…REGGIE http://www.themogh.org/cg_chip2.php?id=CASDBC
