Bob Feeney was called "Mr. $2.50".

Is a snappy happy guy collecting $2.50; 2.5; 250; 2 1/2; and 2$50;2.50$ and lot ways of expressing their happy currency expression which reflect their cultural or social norms.

There is an article that says something like a "demise of snappers".

There are focums and other discussion group who says that a snapper is a "pink chip", others insist that snapper is a Poker chip, one casual discussant said that snapper is a Poker drop chip and early on - John Kallman pointed out that there is a "lawn mower" called snapper. What is a snapper and what is not a snapper is a very serious question for casino chip collector.

Try to Google "what is a snapper?". Warning - you will be in a big surprise to know weapons in UK called snapper and other things - interesting by themselves and very educational somewhat, ending the digestion in your mind with a dinner of a "snapper paksiw" - a Filipino food delicacy known only in their culture. Seriously every body has an idea of what is a snapper.

What are the two states who requires to have a $2.50 when they open a casino. Here in Las Vegas not all casinos used $2.50, it is laughable to hear professional blackjack players callind the "snapper" as a bonus chip given in blackjack combinations of 10, J, Q and K with an A (Ace).

Google it again - in most casinos in the central or south American countries - the bonus chip is always parlayed and parlayed which according to some observers - a scam by the casino - the chances is that you will lose it back to casino.

For efficiency, effectivity and economically - the use of $2.50 is advantagous to the casino - in time and motion study - the more the dealer deals a hand the more the casino can win - but without $2.50, they use the $1.00 coin and a $0.50 coin. Count with me and time my motions as I go thru paying off a blackjack winner. You have to pick two times the $1.00 and one time to pick the $0.50, whereas if you have the $2.50 chips in your table you pick one motion a $2.50 chip - you save in time and motion study 2 of 3 moves - economically more efficient move.

Only two states requires casinos to use $2.50 and must be "pink only" not the other colors - for the benefit of the "eye in the sky".

Any idea out here why $2.50 is popularly called a snapper?

Huh!
