| | | A question about the Sahara...
Does anyone know if they still use TH&C, or if they've completely switched to Blue chip sunbursts? |

Google is your friend. Actually, this was a tough one too find and doesn't even show much of the building. Google is usually a better friend.   Quote: |

I just found out this weekend that Del Webb owned the Yankees for a period of time... 20 years?
Okay, Radix, I think I am far enough off from your post that I should now apologize for the thread jack...

The chips they were using just a couple weeks ago were mostly BC. I didn't see many Paulsons still in action at all. I played with mostly the $5 pieces and I'm surprised to say they turned out to be some of my favorite stacked chips that I can remember. They look really good stacked. Great edgespot color combination on those red chips. I don't remember the inlays looking all out of whack or anything and usually I would spot something like that fairly quickly. The $1's I used seemed up to snuff as well. |
