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

CLEARWATER SALOON EAST WENATCHEE, WA

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

ON A TRIP TO SPOKANE, WA TO VISIT MY UNCLE, AND ABOUT A HUNDRED CARD ROOMS AND CASINOS IN MONTANA AND WASHINGTON, WE TOOK AN OVERNIGHT TRIP INTO CENTRAL WA. ONE OF THE STOPS WAS A QUAINT LITTLE CARD ROOM IN THE TOWN OF EAST WENATCHEE, WA.
THIS IS IN THE HEART OF APPLE ORCHARD COUNTRY, I HAVE NEVER SEEN SO MANY APPLE TREES. THE CASINO/CARD ROOM WAS LOCATED ON ONE OF THE MAIN DRAGS AND ALMOST DIRECTLY ACROSS FROM A SHOPPING MALL. IN THIS TOWN THERE WAS 3 CARD ROOMS OPEN AT THE TIME AND I HAD ALREADY VISITED THE OTHER TWO: BUZZ INN & KEGLERS.
WHEN I WENT IN TO THE CASINO, IT WAS FURNISHED TOTALLY IN EARLY COWBOY. IT WAS VERY RUSTIC AND HARDLY A CUSTOMER, THIS MID AFTERNOON. I STROLLED THROUGHT THE BAR AREA AND SLOT AREA, AND FOUND THE POKER ROOM IN THE BACK AS USUAL. TWO DEALERS WERE THERE CHIT CHATTING, AND ONE ASKED IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO FOR YOU? I EXPLAINED THAT I WAS A CHIP COLLECTOR, AND THEN THEY STARTED PULLING CHIPS OUT OF THEIR TRAY. AND THE BEST PART OF THIS, BESIDES THE EASY WAY IT WENT DOWN, IS I WAS ABLE TO TALK THEM OUT OF A DROP CHIP. NO, I DID NOT GET ENOUGH OF ANY OF THE CHIPS FROM THIS PLACE…REGGIE
