Chips: 2,176 | | | (Hotel) California, LV new release Just received this image and new release notice from Chuck Smorse (Vegas NIS).
(edit: Rose, thanks for posting these! All, these have been put into play at the California Hotel & Casino, Downtown Las Vegas, NV. Made by Paul-Son (GPI) is the reverse H&C mold, aka: RHC-mold. Given the losses that Boyd Gaming posted for this Quarter, I am surprised that thye had money for a new rack. I don't know if this is part of a strategy to get more customers or what. In addition to this Downtown property, Boyd also owns Main Street Station (not be confused as being a "Stations Casino" property) and the Fremont. These 3 properties are marketed together with the Boyd owned operations in Henderson (Eldorado and Joker's Wild). The Boyd owned "Coast Casinos" (The Orleans, Gold Coast, Suncoast and Sam's Town, Boulder Hwy.) are marketed separately from the other properties. Sam's Town was moved into the Coast group when they sold the South Coast to Michael Gaughan (who re-named it South Point). end edit)

I'm not even embarrassed to say I love these chips with flowers as the central art theme.  Then again I love hot pink chips too.  |
