HARVEST ADVENTURES FROM AN ADDICTED CHIP COLLECTOR

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.
Some people have compulsions to gamble, some to amass fortunes and other’s, they just like to write stories; yeah, that would be me. I was never very good at it; but I have done it over the years just the same.
If any of you want any inside info on any casino that I’ve been to, I would be happy to tell you what I can.

PERSONAL HARVESTING STORIES

DOC AND EDDY’S CARDROOM BILLINGS, MT

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

DOC AND EDDY’S CARDROOM IS A CLASSIC LIVE ACTION CARDROOM WITH LOT OF COWBOYS AND HARD DRINKING PLAYERS. I HAVE BEEN THERE SEVERAL TIMES AND HARVESTING THERE IS VERY TRICKY. BELIEVE IT OR NOT THE CHIPS ARE COUNTED WHEN THEY CLOSE UP AT NIGHT AND COUNTED (OBSERVED AND LOGGED) WHEN THEY START THE NEXT DAY.
I USUALLY PLAY A LITTLE HOLDEM OR OMAHA WHILE THERE AND THEN I TALK TO THE “GENERAL” AND SEE WHAT ELSE HE MIGHT FIND IN THAT CUPBOARD SUCH AS “OBSOLETES”. OVER THE YEARS AND VISITS TO THIS CARDROOM I HAVE HAD SOME PLEASANT SUPRISES. I HAVE EVEN BEEN GIVEN AN OPPORTUNITY OF BUYING A COUPLE OF RACKS OF 25c CHIPS VIA EMAIL.
HOWEVER, THE ACTUAL HARVESTING IS NOT QUITE AS EASY. IT HAS TO BE ON THE Q-T. IN OTHER WORDS, I HAVE TO DO A LITTLE PALMING AND SLEIGHT OF HAND. AND I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO COME OUT OF THAT CARD ROOM WITH A WHOLE LOT OF LIVE CHIPS AND NEVER WITH AS MANY AS I WOULD OF LIKED TO HAD. …REGGIE
