does this look real to you?

for some reason, the number on this chip (072 of 500) doesn't look kosher to me. What do you think?

Re: does this look real to you?

My guess is they generally printed the "of 500" on each of the 500 chips as part of the original artwork/inlay and put the "072" on individually afterwards. That way they didn't need to change the inlay 500 times.

Re: does this look real to you?

The chip looks identical to the one I have. (different number of course) The chip is not what bothers me about this auction. The chip itself is not worth 50 bucks, and I really doubt the claims of the seller. My guess is Doyle Brunson has never even seen that chip. The chip is part of a three chip set put out bu the Rio to commemorate the WSOP event. If I was not at work I would post a pick of my set of three.

Re: does this look real to you?

Like the above post states, the chip is the only legit thing in the auction. Everything else is BS. Including the shoe string used as the bolo tie. The seller claims it is an "entry neck tie..." to the WSOP. What the hell is an entry neck tie?

Anyway. Good post, the auction was a good read!

Re: does this look real to you?

Just by looking at the picture it looks like something any dude can make. A common picture of AA"s and cards.. Well even if it was real and all, don't think it worth that 50$ go get something else with your 50$.
