You do know the main differences between the 2 roulette games don't you? I ask as it seems that you don't or choose to pretend you don't.
French has a different layout and uses JETONS not chips, usually cash and sometimes 2 tables run on the same wheel.
AR has designated colours and pre-gaming act with possibly a 0/00 wheel but I've never seen one and assume they may have had them before the gaming act. Since I only started in 1986 I can only relay what others have said and from what I have picked up along the way. AR tables used chips not jetons and run a lot faster.
According to you, Victor was standing in front of a FR wheel and you queried if they were jetons or chips even though they were in stacks not a rack as most (if not all and for the reason that Jo stated) FR jetons are and had inserts so obviously they weren't jetons. I showed the Portsmouth FR table with racks of jetons (it looks like) which is one of the other main reasons FR has been mentioned.
So a Playboy expert expressing possible doubt about them being London (as there is no actual evidence of them being so, yet), an ex FR dealer and a UK AR dealer's opinions mean nothing to you even though (as far as I am aware) you are none of those.
I also mentioned the possibility of it being a hybrid as there are no other ND jetons that we know of and they are unusual because of that.
Regardless of any of that, you and Tom agree that they are jetons so I can't see why you insist they are roulette CHIPS when they are clearly not chips.
As I've said, unlike you I don't like talking just for the sake of it but felt that moving jetons into chips was not the right way to do it so I gave an opinion but if that is what will happen then fine, pity whoever does it doesn't seem to be able to differentiate between jetons and chips either. As you keep going over the same old things or deviating onto others I have had to say a lot more than I wanted to.
Now as long as you stop making things up, I will try not to comment again as you obviously can't hear properly (understandably) or actually care about other people's opinions. That's fine, it's exactly how I feel about yours so not a problem.
As to your ridiculous notion that you seriously doubt I've seen them before, I don't make things up just for the sake of it (something you could maybe try sometime) so I will try to contact Jeff and ask if he minds if I put the photos up. If he does allow me, I don't expect you to admit you were wrong and definitely no apology for calling what I said into question but it will show that easily enough anyway so that will have to do.
I have said all I had to say so if you wish to continue repeating and changing things to suit your narrative then I will just try to ignore you as I usually do until you possibly have something of interest (to me) to say.
Have a lovely day.
