Default Re: And one more question

"5k and 10k chips are in circulation commonly."

I once was scheduled to meet an Asian supplier at dinner at Caesars Palace. He comes to Las Vegas twice a year for a trade show and gambles excessively while there. He told me he would be playing baccarat and would meet me at 7:00. By 7:30 he's not there and I surmised (correctly) that he had gotten stuck and was attempting to get even. Sure enough, he strolls in at 7:45, and proceeds to tell me that you just have to have deep enough pockets to wait for the tide to turn. I ask him if he got even, and he says yes, but it took a lot. He then reaches into his pocket and pulls out about 30 $10,000 chips.

I ask him if he's afraid of having a hole in his pocket.

He replies, "Well, I wasn't up until now."
