A side bet challenge for a chip

I'll offer this up to anyone who wishes to accept the challenge. This is a side bet to this weeks ChipTalk Tourney on September 1st. If you accept this challenge against me then here is what I'll offer.

To whoever knocks me out of the tournament this week I will offer up a brand spanking new $5 casino chip from the Golden Mardi Gras Casino in Black Hawk, Colorado.

If you accept the challenge but then I knock you out instead, you must offer up a $5 casino chip from your collection. The chip must be in good condition and free from visual wear.

Post here if you wish to participate in this side bet for this week's ChipTalk tourney and give an indication as to what chip you are putting up as your wager. This can be open to as many people who wish to participate.

This isn't a bounty but a challenge for a chip that could go both ways. Good luck.

If for some reason I am unable to attend this weeks tournament then I will offer it up again the following week. At this point, I am planning on competing in this weeks tournament.

My Poker Stars player name is pokerdwarf.

I'm in, if this chips is acceptable. It's the only $5 chip I have. If I lose it, no biggie, I'm going back over Christmas.

That would be a big NO.

As for the other chips offered - those will work just fine.

Update on my side:

As it stands today, I got pulled into a meeting at work with Asia Pacific right smack dab in the middle of the tournament. So for me, it looks like my offer will be pushed back to September 8th. So hope that will still work with the rest of you.

Point of clarification:

Any number of people can participate. So for example, if 3 people want to do this then if any of the 3 knock out any of the others who are participating in the side bet then they will get their chip. If someone who is NOT doing the side bet knocks out a person in the side bet then no chip is exchanged.

would you be willing to sell one of these chips.

I don't have any I would trade with at the moment.

The only 5$ chip that is not a common chip, that i have is a chip from a nassau casino " crystal palace " but it's not a clay chip would this do? Also will there be a list of all the players that are in.

DEEJAY - any $5 chip that comes from a real casino (not home or fantasy) is eligible.

butrflynlambie - As for selling one of those Golden Mardi Gras $5 chips, I do have 1 extra that I could sell for $8 (includes shipping to lower 48 states). If you're still interested just PM me and we can work out a Paypal transaction.

We'll just use this thread as a way to track who is participating in the side bet. As for a list - just scroll up the thread. Since I'm missing out on tonights tourney (sigh - work) I'll have to compile a list for Septembe 8th's tourney.
