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

NORTHERN QUEST RESORT & CASINO
AIRWAY HEIGHTS/SPOKANE, WA

By:RICHARD “REGGIE” GUMMER

A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO NANCY AND I FLEW INTO SPOKANE TO VISIT THE PATRIARCH OF MY FAMILY. ALSO I DID SOME HARVESTING, BUT THE NORTHERN QUEST WAS THE MOST MEMORABLE PART OF THE HARVEST.
WE VISITED THE BLACK PEARL, LILAC LANES, HOOTERS, ACES EMPORIUM AND THE CHEWELAH CASINO. THE CHEWELAH WILL BE ANOTHER STORY LATER ON.
AFTER ALL OF THE VISITING AND SPECIAL MEALS WITH MY UNCLE AND WIFE WE DECIDED TO HEAD OVER THE NORTHERN QUEST. IF ANY OF YOU LIVE OR HAVE EVER BEEN TO CALIFORNIA AND HAVE RECOLLECTIONS OF HOW HUGE SOME OF THOSE CASINOS ARE THEN YOU HAVE SOME IDEA HOW LARGE THE NORTHERN QUEST IS.
NORTHERN QUEST HAS A NICE POKER ROOM, SO I GAVE MY NAME TO THE BRUSH AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES FOR THEM TO CALL ME. MEANWHILE, NANCY WAS DOING HER JOB, OF MAKING SURE THE SLOTS ARE WORKING. I HAD GIVEN HER A TEN TO PICK UP SOME NORTHERN QUEST SNAPPERS, OF WHICH I WAS LOW ON. WHEN SHE CAME BACK AND SAID I CAN’T WIN HERE, AND HANDED ME THE 4 SNAPPERS THERE WAS BRAND NEW ONE IN THE GROUP THAT I HAD NEVER SEEN. WE SCRAMBLED AROUND TRYING TO FIND SOME MORE I MANAGED TO ACCUMULATE ABOUT 12 ALL TOGETHER. I DID NOT BUY ENOUGH
WHEN I SHOWED UP AT THE LV SHOW LATER THAT WEEK, IT WAS APPARENT NO ONE ELSE HAD SEEN THIS NEW SNAPPER FROM THE NORTHERN QUEST.…REGGIE
