Well I voted for Playa Negra both times....in fact, I thought that it complimented the Black Sands. And I never thought once about "black player"............

Anyway, I cam accept either one, and it appears that some folks are very much opposed to Playa Negra, so either one is OK. This isn't rally another official vote anyway is it?

I'm just glad that we are back to meaningful chip design discussions! I know that I have not been a part of the discussions thus far, but I have been lurking to watch the progress and am very interested in buying some of these beauties.

Call me crazy, but we might be over analyzing this. That being said:

I mean I really dont like the name playa negra at all and still would vote for St Kitts but just wanted to make sure we knew it wasnt a real place. Closest thing I found was a Palmetto point where theres some inexpensive apartments.
Here is a map of St. Kitts.

I know playa negra is real but i check the links and its a bunch of huts... anyway... or something like Rondevous Bay, Antigua....its early im tired and my vote is still for Kitts.. forget i ever said anything.
And here is a picture of one of the "huts" at Playa Negra. It's one of the largest hand-built palapas in Central America, and overlooks one of the best surf-breaks in the world.

That's obviously a pre-hurricane picture....

This picture shows Palmetto Bay on the south side of the island between Old Road Bay and Frigate Bay. So it looks like it is a real place.

My mistake... the two maps I looked at didnt have it listed and one was very detailed.

So far it's still St Kitts.

I like the sound of Playa Negra, but my first experience in any casino was in the Jack Tarr village in St Kitts - nearly 20 years ago now. That makes me feel old.
