Title: Chip Cofunfused dot com Post by: 77dave on September 22, 2015, 02:36:51 PM I played in the Holland Casino in Amsterdam (hope this isnt taken as a plug)
We had a 2/2 nlh cash game. The chips on the table were 2s 10s and 50s all ofc in euros. I spend more time working out how much and player had bet and how much he had left in his stack than on working out what his cards were. I remember the 1/3 games in the Wynn used to play with $3 chips. Anyone else seen anything strange like this on their travels?

Title: Re: Chip Cofunfused dot com Post by: 77dave on September 22, 2015, 03:41:43 PM I'm not saying it was hard. Just had to adjust from the norm
Usual I see a stack of 20 chips I think it's 20 or 100 or 500 or 2000 Title: Re: Chip Cofunfused dot com Post by: bergeroo on September 22, 2015, 03:48:23 PM Used to the a regular game in Berlin with stakes of 2.50/2.50 played with 2.50 chips. Was really odd, slowed the game down and actually played really nitty. Eventually it died and now they just play 1/1. :(
My favourite is the 9/18 Limit Holdem game at Commerce, California. You just use $3 chips. So everytime you win a pot - all of these go multiple way with action on every street - you win a mountain of chips. It is fun to stack them! Title: Re: Chip Cofunfused dot com Post by: doubleup on September 22, 2015, 04:14:06 PM yeah $3 chips were quite common in LV. The mirage had 3/6 limit with blinds 1/3 I think and the split pot games were 6/12 I think.

Taken as a dig. ;) Title: Re: Chip Cofunfused dot com Post by: Marky147 on September 22, 2015, 04:24:55 PM Not played cash games for years, but when I spent the summer grinding at the Bellagio in 2008, I seem to remember the 4/8 limit games having loads of $2 chips.
Title: Re: Chip Cofunfused dot com Post by: 77dave on September 22, 2015, 04:27:03 PM well to talk a little more about the place they have a comp tonight like i havent seen in many a year

Title: Re: Chip Cofunfused dot com Post by: doubleup on September 22, 2015, 04:57:12 PM Can anyone guess where this €2 chip is from? Title: Re: Chip Cofunfused dot com Post by: atdc21 on September 22, 2015, 05:09:20 PM Don't DTD have £2 chips?
