Hello Chippers; Here is a short story from yours truly or a guest author of our experiences while harvesting somewhere in the gaming world. A few are from countries out side the USA. Most are entertaining and most are instructive as to what to do or what not to do while harvesting chips from casinos or card rooms. Reggie

PERSONAL HARVESTING STORIES

SEVEN FEATHERS CASINO CANYONVILLE, OR

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

SEVEN FEATHERS CASINO IS CONVENIENTLY LOCATED ON THE INTERSTATE FIVE, IN A VERY BEAUTIFUL AREA OF OREGON. I HAVE STOPPED THERE TWO DIFFERENT TIMES ON MY BI-ANNUAL TRIPS UP TO MY MONTANA FAMILY REUNIONS.
ON ONE OF THESE TRIPS I GOT INVOLVED IN A HOLD’EM GAME, IT WAS PRETTY WILD. I DO NOT REMEMBER THE FINAL OUTCOME, BUT I SAT THERE AND SORTED OUT CHIPS FOR CLOSE TO 4 HOURS. AT THIS TIME ALL OF THEIR CHIPS WERE STARTING TO GET THRASHED, AND THIS WAS BEFORE THEIR RECENT NEW RACK. AT THIS TIME THEY HAD THREE DIFFERENT ONE DOLLAR CHIPS ON THE TABLES. COW CREEK, SEVEN FEATHERS, AND SEVEN FEATHERS WITH A GOLD RING.
AS I WAS SEPARATING THE CHIPS INTO 3 DIFFERENT STACKS, ACTUALLY 4 DIFFERENT
STACKS COUNTING MY MEAGER PLAYING STACK; I NOTICE PEOPLE WATCHING ME, AND I
USED THIS CURIOSITY AS AN OPENING TO ENGAGE THEM IN CONVERSATION ABOUT
CHIP COLLECTING. WHEN I GOT TEN OF ONE OF THE FAVORED STACKS, I WOULD GET UP AND PRETEND TO CASH THEM IN, BUT I SLIPPED THEM IN MY CARGO PANTS POCKETS AND CONTINUED THE HARVEST UNTIL I HAD ALL THIRTY CHIPS I WANTED AND THE FEW FIVES I NEEDED. THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY SNAPPERS AND I DID NOT SEE ANY $2’s, $3’s OR $4’s. BUT, SOONER OR LATER THE FUN HAD TO COME TO AN END, AND I CASHED EVERYTHING I WANTED TO IN AND GOT THE ROAD AGAIN. I HAD HARVESTED WHAT I NEEDED FOR A VERY LONG TIME. REGGIE
