What WSOP knock-offs? Do you mean the ESST?

I am not good with primary/secondary and all that. One of the boat tourney sets is a WSOP knock off. It looks awesome too.

You’d be losing money if you tried to pass those 5ks off as $5 chips in CA !!!

@colter ripton aren't your Irish Mike $5s the same as the Golden Eagle $5s?

 

[BGinGA]

No pics handy but cancelled Argosy $5's and Good Luck Club (fantasy) $5's are identical.

The Argosy chips were rejected by the Indiana gaming board (wrong casino name), cancelled, and replaced. Never used.

Pretty much and the Irish Mike $500s were pretty much the same as the yellow Capitol City $1

Capitol City and Golden Eaglesl chips never used by a casino, either.

How can we archive @BGinGA's brain so that all of this info can be easily found and searched?

This 100 chip from Marrakech is exact the same that the ACF Paulson T100.

Edit: exact color and spot but not the same mold

I thought one had yellow spots and the other had daisy.

We compared with @donclay it's was exact the same color spot.
Besides we were surprised.
It was a while ago ... you confirm @Don Clay ?

These are pretty darn close:

Couple of things. First they're on a different mold, so even if the spot patterns and colors were identical, they'd still be unique.
Second, I'm not sure i the unique spot guarantee is enforced on $1 chips. Maybe it is; I dunno. But who would care?

 

[colter ripton]

the golden eagle 5s are the exact same as the Irish mike 5s except the inlays.

As mentioned before though, neither are actually casino chips.

the Hinkleys is a good one, i never noticed that they were exact to the flvs before.

Already done. He's actually a very advanced A.I.

Different mold makes no difference. A casino can use their same color/spot combo on a thc, rhc, and house mold (and some places have done just that). Nobody else can use that exact color/spot combo.

Interested in how the discussion went when they worked with The Venetian and The Palazzo. Two different casinos/hotels, but they have same owner and even are technically physically connected. If memory serves me right, they share the same color/spot combo on the $1s, although the inlays are obviously different.

I'm sure they make an exception for properties on the same physical location and owned/operated by the same corporation. Harrah's and Harveys in Lake Tahoe for example.

^^ this. I'd guess that all chip orders are place from the corporate office, regardless of which specific venue the chips are for.

Oh for sure, just find it interesting since this isn't something I would have even thought about a few months ago before I was here and more into chip history, despite staying at those very hotels a year ago.

It was long ago bro, I don't even remember
That said, you're very likely right
