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

CITIES OF GOLD CASINO SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

CITIES OF GOLD SITS ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF SANTA FE NEW MEXICO. I WAS ON A MISSION THAT INCLUDED EVERY CASINO THAT SAT BETWEEN LAUGLIN, NV AND ALBUQUERQUE-SANTA FE NEW MEXICO. THAT INCLUDES A LARGE AMOUNT OF CASINOS TWO MANY TO LIST IN THIS SHORT STORY. SO I PULLED INTO THE CITIES OF GOLD AROUND 2-3PM ONE AFTER NOON, I AM PRETTY SURE IT WAS A WEEK DAY. AS I WALKED INTO A RATHER UNIQUE CASINO, I WILL BRIEFLY DESCRIBE IT; IT WAS MOSTLY DESIGNED AS AN ADOBE RANCH STYLE BUILDING, WITH 10” CLAY/BRICKS ON THE FLOOR. UPON ENTERING THE CASINO I ASK WHERE THE POKER ROOM WAS, TO FIND OUT IF A GAME WAS IN SESSION THAT EARLY. AND YES, THEY DID HAVE A GAME, WITH A SEAT OPEN; AS I REMEMBER THERE WAS 6 PLAYERS THERE AND I MADE THE SEVENTH. I AM NOT GOING TO ASK YOU TO GUESS WHAT KIND OF GAME THEY WERE PLAYING; BUT, IT WAS MY FAVORITE GAME “HIGH-LOW SPLIT EIGHT OR BETTER.”
I SAT DOWN WITH A HUGE SMILE AND A HUNDRED DOLLAR BILL. A COUPLE OF HOURS LATER AFTER PLAYING AND INSPECTING EVERY CHIP FOR FLAWS, AND FILLING MY POCKETS WITH CHIPS THAT WERE NOT GOING TO BE CASHED; I GOT UP AND SAID GOOD BYE TO EVERYONE AND THEN I WENT OVER TO THE CASHIER AND CASHED OUT 2-3 HUNDERED, STILL WITH A BIG SMILE.
THIS WAS A VERY GOOD STOP FOR ME. WON A FEW, FOUND A FEW I NEEDED FOR MY COLLECTION AND STOCKED MY INVENTORY WITH FUTURE TRADERS. WHAT MORE CAN YOU ASK. THIS WAS A GREAT HARVEST…REGGIE
