Default Counterfeit chips

Has anyone ever heard a story (or stories) of people getting caught passing counterfeit chips?

There's a reasonably well known story about a guy who minted coins which worked in the Caesars Palace slot machines. I think it was on one of those Discovery Channel shows.

A dealer at the Taj told me he once caught someone passing painted whites off as blacks. This was apparently before they had holograms on them.

Let me save you a couple knee caps and years getting bum hammered in the joint. If you really need money- go to Arizona, check out the card rooms, follow a fat, winning player out to his car, put gun in his face, ask to see trunk. Now you rich....
