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

PARADISE FALLS POKER ROOM MISSOULA, MT

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

BEAUTIFUL MISSOULA MONTANA, IS WHERE YOU WILL FIND PARADISE FALLS CASINO. INSIDE OF THE CASINO YOU WILL FIND A SMALL POKER ROOM, THAT LOOKS LIKE THEY TOOK A SMALL BANQUET ROOM FOR FAMILIES WISHING TO HAVE THEIR OWN DINING ROOM, AND CONVERTED IT TO A POKER ROOM.
WHEN I ARRIVED AT THIS LOCATION IN MISSOULA, THERE WAS A YOUNGER LOOKING MAN COUNTING THE CHIPS, THAT I GUESSED WERE THE RACK FOR THE POKER GAMES. I ASKED HIM ABOUT THE CHIPS AND WHAT DENOMINATIONS HE USED. HE TOOK THE QUARTER, DOLLAR AND FIVE DOLLAR CHIPS AND LAID THEM ON THE POKER TABLE FOR ME TO INSPECT. I THOUGHT THAT WAS EASY ENOUGH AND ASKED IF I COULD BUY SOME FOR MY COLLECTION. HE SAID I DON’T SEE WHY NOT…SO I THOUGHT A MINUTE AND ASKED HOW ABOUT 4 $5’S 25 $1’S AND 10 $25c CHIPS? HE SAID WELL, I AM OK WITH THE 1’S AND 5’S BUT I CAN ONLY GIVE YOU MAYBE FOUR 25c CHIPS, I NEED THEM FOR THE ANTE’S. I DID NOT WANT TO LOOSE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HARVEST THE ONES AND FIVES SO I SAID, I UNDERSTAND AND I WILL TAKE AS MANY AS YOU CAN AFFORD (OF THE 25centers) AND HE SAID HOW ABOUT 6 OF THEM THAT SEEMED QUITE DOABLE FLIPPED HIM A $50 DOLLAR BILL AND HE COUNTED OUT MY CHANGE AND I LEFT A COUPLE OF BUCKS ON THE POKER TABLE AND EXITED QUIETLY.
WHAT A GREAT HARVEST AND IT COULD NOT GONE ANY SMOOTHER. I DID NOT GET ENOUGH OF THE 25c CHIPS BUT I GOT ENOUGH OF THE ONES & FIVES.
