In light of the recent picture that @Thomacetti posted in his vacation thread with the new Horseshoe $100 I thought I'd post up a little comparison between two other near identical chips. Seems like a pretty big security risk. I was surprised to see the Jumer's 100 and was pretty stoked to pick some up so I could label them as Terrible's being I don't have many Terrible's 100's. Then seeing the Horseshoe I just can't believe they let these new one's be made.

At the risk of associating myself with this post, I must say this is completely inexcusable.

At least the GPI spies who monitor this site 24/7 will spot and correct it stat. Right? Right??? :rolleyes:
 
After color transfer of the black to the bright white spots its likely that they’ll become more gray like terribles or Jumers making it much more difficult to discern since that’s basically the only give away.
 
Go to 4:26 and you can here my explanation about this. I said its too close, but it was probably an oversight or because they were secondary chips. Not too sure, but I talk about it in my video.

Awesome dude!!! I’ll give it a watch later today. The strangest thing imo is that it’s been said in the fourm that the site is monitored by GPI and casinos. So with that knowledge I’m not sure how it could be an oversight. The casino sold in 2020 I think and I’d the site is monitored they’d know pretty well the laws of the states and whether Jim can get the chips or not.

Also casinos can go for remarkably cheap like 25 million. Obviously, that’s not cheap for me or basically anyone here. But for a buisness that prints money it does seem pretty damn cheap.

I'm not too sure why people are scared to talk about it. Just have common sense and you'll be fine no matter what. Nothing that GPI or casinos can do. The only thing that could possibly be done is something by gaming commission and even then it would be nothing from my understanding because you aren't the person directly doing the act.

Mistakes and oversights happen if they do. No one in this world is perfect and it's already been done so we can't do anything about it now.

Yeah I don’t know why people are afraid to speak about it. I’m not gonna make a fake or help someone make a fake. I think the worst that happens is a cease and desist order and if that happens then I’ll stop posting pictures. It’s their fault for being dumb enough to put these on the floor, not mine.
 
It's my belief that GPI's mechanism for making sure the same patterns & colors don't get re-used is limited to text comparison. That is
"Black with pattern 23 in Arc Yellow and Grey"
is not the same as
"Black with pattern 23 in Arc Yellow and Off White"
so it doesn't get flagged.

Consider the Empress Star secondary tournament chips. Obviously modeled after the WSOP secondary set, but GPI didn't notice or care. (Which is also why I found it hilarious when people were talking about how the GB organizers were going to get sued for using those colors. Um, if the WSOP has a problem with some chips that GPI made, they would go after GPI, not the people who ordered the chips.)

I think the thing that blows my mind the most here is the fact you're paying $100 a pop on live chips just to relabel as obsolete hundos?

Yeah let’s not pile on. Glad we noticed it. Hopefully they fix it! And bring back more complex patterns.
 
In TCG's color terminology, this looks like brown vs. black, so not the same.
 
Update from today at the Horseshoe cage. Maybe not related to this but the cashier was very long and slow. Everyone cashing in $100’s or larger were verified to have colored up by the pit. Players were pointing to “that craps table in the back…” and then the cage got on the phone for a minute. Several people were cashing in for their spouse or friends and they had to wait for the person who colored up to come to the cage.

I asked the cashier and she said “they won’t tell us what happened, but something happened at the tables and we need to verify $100’s.”
