I made a chip run to Lake Charles this past weekend. As you know, the two Casino boats--the Star Casino and Players Casino were taken over in January by Harrah's. The chips in these two casino have stayed the same--for the moment. Sept. 11 is the scheduled GRAND OPENING of the two new Harrah's Casino boats. New chips and all. The Star Casino boat will remain but the Players Casino boat is being removed and replaced with a smaller, and I assume nicer, boat. Doug
