Sold Grail Set: Palms Tourney (2 Viewers)

Decisions were made, hard choices followed. Here is the hardest.

This is the only set of these in existence. There is one other similar set with different colors. Painstakingly put together by @Tommy.

60,000 were made and about 58,000 were destroyed.

About 2000 survived because the poker room manager had them out of the vault and was using them for a private party.
David Spragg and Gene Trimble worked out a deal with the Palms to buy what was left which also included those 48mm Buy-In Chips.

A large portion of the 2000 were sold to one person, and the rest David and Gene kept to sell as sample sets.
I picked up the remaining chips that David had to add to this set.

I'd take them.

Very nice grab, Larry

Thanks, guys. I waited and waited, expecting someone else to grab them before I reached the bottom of the ad page, then waited some more -- and finally couldn't resist.

Anyone who would like to play with these chips could head to Florida next February for the SQM and persuade Mark @k9dr to incorporate these into an STT ....

Maybe I could sponsor a weekday afternoon multi-table event with one of my favorite sets at each table. (Have to think about it and sell the idea to Mark...)

This is an extremely nice gesture from you @navels , appreciated!
I am torn back and forth and by coincidence I would have the funds in my pp....
but knowing that with larry they are in the hands of a chipper who truly appreciates a good set, I pass. Thanks again

Very kind of you to say that, Roger. Thank you.

And Navels too, of course.
