My story about the new Lucky Lady. I had been following the ups and downs of the Normandie Casino online - open, now closed, but actually still open . . . until news of Larry Flynt's purchase of the casino hit the news. But as you know, a big ruckus erupted between Larry and the City of Gardena which wanted a guarantee of $800,000 tax revenue per month in return for certain "favorable allowances." Mr. Flynt refused to cave in and kept the casino closed . . . for a few days. I recognized this as the classic poker-bluff.
Sure enough, the City caved in, and in a news release on July 19, it was announced that the Lucky Lady might open as soon as Friday, July 20. I read this on July 20 . . . and decided to drive down to Gardena to see for myself, with no great expectation that the casino would indeed be open.
But, surprise! The new Lucky Lady was open, in fact its grand opening, marked only by a workman hurriedly applying a new Lucky Lady decal to the front doors. It must have been hurriedly arranged - no balloons, flowers or that sort of thing. Just some dedicated gamblers playin' away . . . with new chips! Which, when I bought some at the Cage, turned out to have the naked lady on the inlay. Shocking, but fun! I had all of $65 with me at the time, and this went fast for 50¢, $1, and $5 chips. Walked around the tables and asked a dealer what those green chips were - $2 drop chips, she replied. Welllll . . . back to the cage for some of those, which the cashier graciously sold. But then - I spied some red chips in a rack and was told they were $3 drop chips - not currently on the tables. But, I asked the cashier, could I buy some as a collector? She shrugged and said it was all right with her. Next problem: no more cash!
Drove frantically around Gardena looking for a compatible ATM and sure enough, a block from the Hustler, the right bank appeared. So, with a newly-acquired $100 bankroll in my pocket, I raced back to the Lucky Lady and bought more chips, including those $3 ones.
Best chuckle of the night: seeing a patron approach the doors of the Lucky Lady, stop, and stare at the new decals. He did a double-take, as if he was on "Candid Camera." But the doors had a familiar look to them, so in he went. I can only imagine his surprise when he got a handful of naked lady chips for his game!
Anyway, that's one of the few casino grand openings that I ever attended, and pretty much all by accident.

IN 2006 NANCY AND I EMBARKED UPON A MONTH LONG TRIP OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
AND THE STATE OF OREGON. THIS WAS SHORTLY AFTER WE HAD PURCHASED A 22’ RV TO TRAVEL IN. ONE OF OUR STOPS EARLY IN THE TREK WAS TWIN PINES CASINO.
THIS WAS LONG BEFORE THE TERRIBLE FIRES THEY HAD A FEW YEARS BACK, THE FIRES NEARLY BURNED THIS CASINO DOWN. NOT REALLY SURE HOW CLOSE IT DID COME.
WHEN WE PULLED IN TO THE PARKING LOT IT WAS FAIRLY EARLY, NOONISH; AND THERE WAS NOT MORE THAN 5 PEOPLE BESIDES ATTENDANTS, DEALERS AND FLOOR STAFF INSIDE THE CASINO. THIS WAS ABOUT WHEN THEY BROUGHT IN THEIR FIRST SNAPPER.
SO, THAT WAS THE FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS OF WHICH WAS QUITE EASY OBTAINING. THE NEXT THING ON OUR UNOFFICIAL LIST WAS THE 4 INSERT (WITH 4 DASHES ON THE EDGE OF THE CHIP) ONE DOLLAR CHIP, WHICH AS THE PIT MANAGER SAID WAS A DIMISHING SPECIES. BUT, SHE WAS BORED AND HELPED UP LOOK THROUGH ALL OF THE TABLES, AND AS I REMEMBER THEY HAD 8 OR 10 TABLES IN ONE CLUSTER. WE ENDED UP LEAVING WITH ABOUT 10 SNAPPERS, 10 OF THE 4 INSERT (TOUGHIES) $1 CHIPS AND 20 OF THE EASIER 4 INSERT CHIPS. YES, WE DID LEAVE A NICE TIP.

WE THEN PROCEEDED DOWN THE ROAD LOOKING FOR KONOCTI VISTA OR ROBINSON RANCHERIA WHICH EVER CAME UP FIRST. THIS WAS A VERY NICE HARVEST, TOO BAD ALL OF THEM DO NOT WORK OUT LIKE THIS…REGGIE

I am always trying to put things together that have some semblance of balance. Of course, that will always be in the eye of the beholder. Some of these may attract you the collector a little or a lot, no matter which way it attracts, please know I am always trying to help you out, with items you want at price that is fair. For now, I am going to do them every week, but as an unscheduled surprise feature…Thanks for looking. Reggie
If you have some ideas about compatible pairs please send them in to me. If it is possible and I happen to have the two, they will be put on the docket...reg
Add one dollar for shipping, unless you have a hold service with me

Collecting chips is quite an adventure, there are so many ways of going about it. Everyone has an agenda or parameters that govern their collecting methods. With that thought in mind, I try to secure all variations, back up racks, UV’s, 1st series, 2nd series, etc. of any casino. Especially, the one dollar chip.
Every week, I come across a variation, or mold design, that I had not took note of before, and add it to my “Page A Day”. It adds to my total inventory and variety.
I realize this is not of any importance to many chippers. However, to those that do collect UV’s, Mold variations and chip design changes, it is very helpful; hopefully… Please email me any areas of variations and design that you think I need to address.
That being said, I am finding this less and less important in my personal collecting.
Thank you for your interest. Reggie
I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING POST CARDS FOR SEVERAL YEARS, AND HAVE SOME PRETTY COOL ONES. THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A NICE THING TO DO; SHARING THEM. NOT QUITE READY TO START SELLING THEM. ( THERE ARE VERY FEW THAT I HAVE DUPLICATES THEY ARE FOR SALE AND WILL HAVE A PRICE ALONG WITH THEIR TITLES). THAT BEING SAID; SHOULD YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE ONE OF THESE BEAUTIES THAT IS NOT PRICED, FEEL FREE TO MAKE ME AN HONEST OFFER.…REGGIE
#047 GOLDEN NUGGET DAY AND NIGHT - LAS VEGAS
MANY YEARS AGO I STARTED MY POSTING, BY POSTING “A SET OF THE DAY” I THINK I HAD ABOUT 300-400 SETS ALL TOGETHER. THAT WAS A LOT OF FUN BACK THEN. AND WHEN I STARTED DOING “A PAGE A DAY” I INCLUDED BETTER SETS AS A CATEGORY.
BUT NOW; RATHER THAN HAVING MY BETTER SETS CATEGORY, I WILL START HAVING A REGULAR SET OF THE DAY WITH MY OTHER FEATURES WHEN I DISPLAY A “PAGE OF THE DAY”.
I AM REDUCING PRICES ON MOST OF THESE SETS, SOME WILL BE FACE VALUE, SO IF YOU SEE SOMETHING YOU LIKE AND WANT, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE IN SENDING ME AN EMAIL, PUTTING A SOLD SIGN ON THE CB IS NOT THE WAY TO GUARANTEE YOUR PURCHASE OR TRADE. SEE POD FOR P/H RATES. SEND ME AN EMAIL FOR ORDERS OR QUESTIONS…Reggie
del Lago Waterloo, NY $12
WITH THAT THOUGHT IN MIND AND KNOWING THAT I WILL BE THERE FOR ALL TRADING SESSIONS, PLEASE KNOW THAT I CANNOT READ ANY ONES MIND. SO IF YOU SEE SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO TRADE FOR LMK, I MAY NOT BE BRINGING THAT PARTICULAR ITEM THAT CAUGHT YOUR EYE. AS A MATTER OF FACT THERE IS A 90% CHANCE I WON’T BE BRINGING IT. I AM PROBABLY BRINGING ONLY 5-10% OF WHAT I HAVE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE COLLECTION LIBRARY AND MY PAGES OF THE DAY. (1600+ CHIPS) ALSO, YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT I CANNOT GUARANTEE A TRADE, BUT I WILL DEFINITELY TRY TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.
ANOTHER THING IS I WILL BE THERE EARLY ENOUGH ON TUESDAY TO SCHEDULE A TRADE SESSION IN MY ROOM , AFTER ATTENDING THE ANNUAL SPLASH BAR MEET AND GREET AND DOING SOME PERSONAL CHIP TRADING.
I BELIEVE IN TRADING FIRST, AND FOLKS THAT KNOW ME FROM THE CONVENTION IN JUNE AT LAS VEGAS, KNOW THIS. HOWEVER SOME OF THE NEWER MEMBERS MIGHT NOT THINK ABOUT TRADING WHILE ATTENDING THE CONVENTION IN JUNE. ANY QUESTIONS PERTAINING TO THIS SUBJECT, PLEASE EMAIL ME ANY TIME. THANKS FOR READING THIS LITTLE INFO-MERCIAL…REGGIE
