Just wondering,

Does anyone know of a casino that still uses a 50¢ chip?

If so, what type of chip are they?


Thanks

Sometime it was matsui plastic chips but i havn t chips like this actually.

Quite a few canuck-land casinos still use them. Probably the nicest Paulson is from the casino in thunder bay. Great Blue heron in scugog still has them though they are not as nice. Both paulsons.

Commerce Casino in LA uses a solid peach hot stamped clay 50¢ chip at the $1/2 table to give change back from the rake. I believe they're Paulsons with a house mold. The rest of their chips are bud jones making the 50¢ kind of a cool exception.

From the great blue heron, do they have this one still? Seems like this might be an older chip.

The chip guide also had a 25 cent. If they have this blue one do they still have the 25cent?

Damn, I really like the 25c.

Go up there and buy a few racks of both, too bad the $1 dont match the 50c.

Im a sucker for hot-stamped solids.

A while back the great blue heron had some of the nicest chips in Canada. Then they switched over to the worst bud Jones chips money could by. I think they are V5s???? At any rate when you go to pick up a chip they suction cup together like crazy glue. And they look like shit.

Prob not. They did have a bunch of new ones the other day that I was tempted to keep...but as they only give them out as change it would take a long time. I might ask a dealer or cage next time I go though....couldn't hurt.

Funny, most of the cheap asses there use the 50¢ chips to tip.

It's really the worst. No one runs the board well for low limit games so players just sit down and there is tons of dealer abuse. The players really run the show there and dealers are pretty despondent. I much prefer the hustler.
