Default Why the plastic chips in LA cardrooms? (LC)

They freaking suck... Are they that much cheaper/more durable?

A few casinos out in here in Vegas use them and they are the absolute worst chips in history. I believe that Cantebury Park in MN uses them too. They stick together, near impossible to cut (even for an ex bacc / dice dealer), and are just downright not fun to play with.

No. But I've been there. I wouldn't want to live in LA(don't like cities and hate traffic) but a nice suburb would be sweet. I'm pretty sure I hate the cold, and it's not like real estate is "cheap" up here.

NYC isn't in New England, hate to break it to you, LOL.

He said he lived in NY after I said he lived in New England, look at his location and deduce. (LOL?)

If you think NYC is dense look at Japan, or India. I think even LA is more dense than NYC.

NE stands for north east not new england. At least it was intented to. Never said I lived in new england but I do like new england and went to prep school and actually enjoyed it. I really really hate the city of LA although socal in general is ok weather wise and beaches and stuff... I dont mind cold weather though.
