My Terrible's sets with label choices - Mixed H&C Casino set (1 Viewer)

[slisk250]

At one time I owned more than 13,000 Terrible's chips. I'm not sure what the count is today, but I learned 2 things. The first is that I prefer chips that are new or slightly broken in. I also learned that I much prefer the secondary chips. I also will sell off the used MT primaries once I bring them back from Saudi. I have 5 racks of mint MT primary 5s and I much prefer those to the STJ plus I sold the last of my STJ 5s to Rowdy so that is why they appear in the first set.

I've found just about everything I need and the final pRon will come this summer. I have gear labels for quarters and high denoms on two sets and will use the Roulettes sometimes too. I'll sell off the extra mint roulettes that will never see play.

I also have completed my mixed set. I'm sure nobody has the same quarters and the only way this could be improved IMO is if I were successful in getting those Point After 25s (an impossibility)

Here are the chip choices and I've got 'em all.

I love all the Terrible's sets you've mocked up. I really like the STJ secondary set the best. The Gamblers pleasure from the primary set are great too in the primary set.

We already talked a little about it but any leftover Terrible's please let me know. After seeing all those I'm interested in more then what we just talked about. I'd love to pick them up at the Rumble in the Rockies this summer

Mike,
An epic set and an epic journey to get here. I remember when you started looking for terrible's and buying anything and everything that hit the market and even bought chips from people that didn't know they wanted to sell. IIRC your words in one thread were "I am the black hole for terrible's" (i'm not stalking you I just remember laughing at it and thinking "That SOB sure as hell is"), as i was sure I would never get my set complete, a set in which you were a huge help in getting to playable numbers especially the tourney set.

Those quarters are the nuts, when @RussB42 showed pRon of those they were awesome (funny Russ also sold me my RR Pass quarters for my mixed set as well)

Great job

Sometimes I can really screw up !!!! Ha Ha

Great sets, Mike - I know it's been a long journey, and glad that I could help out a bit here and there along the way.

So, the million dollar question is.....

What's next?

Id love to see an alternative mix set that does not use two Empress Chips. My first thought was to use the Aztar Secondary Hundo, and then find an new $25 (preferably one with Scallop Inlay so as to not repeat shapes)

Well...since you asked, just tune in to the Divide Thread Aug. 3. I think I'll have something special then.

Yeah, I was thinking the same. Need a different $500 H&C. It is just for looks as a $500 most likely doesn't hit the felt. Any suggestions?

I actually have a deal going to improve the MT Secondary quarter. Hope that gets completed in March when I go home for a wedding.

Lost my chip spreadsheet when my hard drive failed. Since then, I haven't kept track of things.
I know Larry has some, and Ski_exe5. But both have large Condado sets, so I doubt they'd part with any. I sold some stacks and racks. If I have time later, I'll do a little hunting through PMs.

Gotta get to work now though. Good luck!

One of these -chip a holic- bad days when you make some weird decisions.

.

Mike, no interest for my Aruba Palm Beach 25ers ?
Used condition, still in good shape though for 4 barrels.

 

[slisk250]

Here is another lineup. I think that the Horseshoe 500 will look ok next to a Gamblers 500, but will it accept a label? I have a barrel but I think they are too worn. Was able to make a nice trade and would love to find another rack of 2V Binion's 1s to finish the PCA. Maybe the Condado 500s are a pipe dream but I'll hunt those a bit and see.

No mention whatsoever of that gorgeous Stones Tavern @slisk250 ? Sneaky, sneaky!!!!
