Re: AC - Nastiest Chips (checks)
[ QUOTE ]
I have some at home as well and I think that they are definitely magnetic. [/ QUOTE ] One floor person at the Borg said they weren't magnetic, the other that they were. Anyone know who makes the chips so we can ask them? |

Re: AC - Nastiest Chips (checks)
I'm assuming that they're made by Bud Jones, and may not start out magnetic, but tend to acquire their magnetism in much the same way any such metal might.

Re: AC - Nastiest Chips (checks)

Last time I was at the borg the floor told me that they are having all of the chips replaced in the casino by tghen end of the summer due to these problems. [/ QUOTE ] Nice to know that they take complaints to heart. When I went there regularly last summer I was talking to the room manager about the chips and he showed me a slug from a broken chip and told me about them being magnetic. He said that I was one of several who complained about the chips being stuck together all the time and that they were going to replace them by the end of the summer (last summer). Between the horrible wait times at the borg and the overall fishiness of the Taj games, I have not been back in 6-7 months. If they finally get rid of the chitty chips and open the new room to fix the wait/game selection problem, I might make it back someday. |

Re: AC - Nastiest Chips (checks)
I never understood the "I'm tired of waiting when I go to the Borgata" thing. I've often arrived when the list for a game I wanted to play was at least 40-deep, and been seated within minutes.... I know of a lot of other people who also have no problem with the lists. Don't let a long list stop you from enjoying a great room, it's not tough to get a seat...

Re: AC - Nastiest Chips (checks)
For games where they are only spreading one or two tables, it can be a huge pain.

Re: AC - Nastiest Chips (checks)
Why don't they wash them?

Re: AC - Nastiest Chips (checks)
I heard this age-old debate come up at my table again last night. I imagine there are metal slugs in them.
The tendency of the chips to stick together makes it very difficult to count out them out for a bet in NL. I found the dealer and players at the table asking me how much I was betting, because I was taking forever to count them out. |
