What kind of chip are these...? Turning Stone $1

They feel... different... but they sound identical to Paulsons.

They're Casino Paulson's - with the Turning Stone Mold.

I have a $5 TS chip. I couldn't find any $1's worth saving and they looked at me like I had 2 heads when I asked if I could get any new chips to add to my collection. Most were actually pretty rude about it at the cages and tables.

I like to get 12 chips from casinos to carry w/ me to work and shuffle. I played a little 1-3 for a while and would search through the chips as I pulled in pots... those 3 were the only decent ones that I could find out of the 100+ that I cashed in. When I asked for 9 decent looking ones at the cage he simply said 'no, we can't do that... who's next?'. Oh well... I'm still sort of surprised that these are Paulsons though

It's more commonly called a House Mold being made specifically for that casino. They've been around for about 40 years now.

You might want to ask one of the floorman or chip runners for chips rather than asking at the cashier's cage. Cashier's cages normally redeem chips, they don't generally issue them. Also they may not be as receptive to collectors at Indian casinos as they are at the larger casino center attractions like Atlantic City, Tunica, Reno/Tahoe, and Las Vegas.

Turning Stone sucks. I've been there many times and they have the worst floorpeople, staff, and comps of any casino I've ever been to.

Yes, all of those things are true... it's also incredibly smokey in the casino as well...horrible ventilation, but hey, it's close, and there's a poker room!

Looks like your about 13 miles closer. We need a poker room at the Saratoga Racino. I hate slots. Been there twice and that was 2 times too many.

I second that motion... but I might be able to settle for some video poker.

I'm also in the Albany area.

The Racino is HORRIBLE. I went there one time. I will never go there again.

Better off taking a day trip to Turning Stone or Mohegan Sun.
