Below are published the names of almost 500 club members who are opposed to slabbing of casino chips. It was this SUBSTANTIAL groundswell of opposition to slabbing of chips that influenced the current club officers to run on a "slab-free" platform. The club membership elected the current officers knowing full well that they were anti-slabbing and would continue the policy of banning slabbed chips at our annual conventions that was established by the prior administration before them.

Please don't allow the negative, anti-club, "re-writers" of club history dilute the facts of the matter.

The Following People Have Taken The Pledge To Be Slab Free!

I will NOT buy any slabbed chip.
I will NOT have any slabbed chip in my collection.
I will NOT buy ANY chip from any dealer who sells slabbed chips.
I will NOT buy ANY chip from any dealer who grades chips for a slabbing service.
I will NOT do business of any kind with any dealer who participates in any way in the slabbing of chips.
If you wish to take the pledge just send us an email from here.
