For those of you laughing at the chips here's a true story:
In the mid 90's a group of us from the Manhattan clubs discovered a game run by Greeks in Queens. Small but nice room, fantastic food. One day I was walking in Manhattan down a random street and passed a gambling supply store w/ the very same chips the Greeks used in the window. I thought 'Free money, Greek mobsters. Free money, Greek mobsters'………..and kept on walking.
I wouldn't have bought them anyway, tbh, but you'd have to be insane to try to smuggle in chips in a game run by 'those people.'
