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

BOOMTOWN CASINO BILOXI, MS

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

THIS HARVEST WAS WHILE I WAS STILL LIVING IN TENNESSEE. NANCY AND I HAD DECIDED ON LONG WEEKEND IN BILOXI-GULFPORT. I HAD HEARD THAT THE SOUTHERN COLLECTORS CLUB WAS MEETING IN GULFPORT AT THE ISLAND VIEW CASINO FOR A TRADING SESSION AND MEETING.
WE HAD RESERVED TWO NIGHTS AT A WHAT TURNED OUT TO BE THE LOCAL FLEA BAG MOTEL ON THE MAIN DRAG INTO GULFPORT JUST OFF THE I-10 INTERSTATE.
AFTER THE MEETING AND TRADE SESSION, NANCY AND I DECIDED TO TAKE A TOUR OF AS MANY OF THE CASINOS WE COULD GET TO; AND HARVEST FROM. ONE OF THESE WOULD BE THE BOOMTOWN CASINO IN BILOXI.
THIS WAS VERY UNFORTUNATE FOR ME BECAUSE OF ALL CASINOS I HAVE HARVESTED, I HAVE NEVER BEEN FLEECED AT THE POKER TABLE SO QUICKLY AND SO SMOOTHLY. THESE GUYS WERE VERY EFFICIENT AT THEIR CRAFT. THE TRIP, THE MEETING-TRADE SESSION WERE EXTREMELY PRODUCTIVE. THE POKER TABLE AT THE BOOMTOWN, TOTALLY NEUTRILIZED THE PLUSES OF THE TRIP. WELL, NOT COMPLETELY, IT WAS JUST A COUPLE OF BILLS LATER (IN LESS THAN 2 HOURS) I WAS PULLING UP STAKES FROM THE NIGHT LIFE OF BILOXI. I HAD HARVESTED ENOUGH AWAY IN MY PANTS POCKETS, FOR MY TRADE INVENTORY AND COLLECTION AND WAS HAPPY WITH THAT PART. I WAS UPSET AT MYSELF FOR STAYING SO LONG AT A BAD POKER TABLE. NANCY CAME BY AND SAID THESE SLOTS ARE STINGY ARE YOU READY? BOY WAS I, SO WE MADE A VERY QUICK DEPARTURE, BACK TO THE MOTEL FROM HELL, FOR A LITTLE SLEEP AND AN EARLY MORNING DEPARTURE BACK TO TENNESSEE.
ONE THING I DID NOT FIND IS THE CHIPCO LIGHT HOUSE, THEY ARE STILL HARD TO FIND.
I DID GET ENOUGH CHIPS FOR MY COLLECTION AND PLENTY OF TRADERS FOR THE FUTURE…REGGIE
