I have a small mushroom that has been preserved in lacquer. If someone asks me what it is I tell them it is an old dried up dog's dick, but only while they are holding it.

I used to use foreign coins, but gave up on it. Really there's not much point in using anything other than a random chip from your stack. You can't lose it (in the sense of misplacing it) and nobody gives you grief.

I guess if you don't have a chip, you don't get a hand.

50 cent piece if I have one on me.
"American Beauty" chip if I remember, and want to be slightly rude.
Otherwise, chip from my stack.

I was playing in the Venetian Deep-stack last Saturday and saw a person using a 7oz polished gold nugget he pulled out his mine in Dawson City [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I usually use a $10 silver commemorative chip from Caesars LV that I got out of one of those ridiculous tourist slot machines on my first trip to Vegas in 1995. I like that it has some of my own personal gambling history to it.

I used to use this little statue of Ganesh. I thought it was fitting.

Then one day I forgot it and had to use a chip from my stack instead. Never went back.

That's is funny stuff - ROFL.

I use a silver dollar coin that use to be an money clip. Since I never have any money in the clip, I removed the clip so it's just the coin.

I use this:



That is why i got the Diceman nickname.

I originally used a cheapo crappy metal die from an Xmas cracker, but the silver rubbed off so i bought one of them for £2.50.

Meh, slightly cheesy i guess, but its served me well over the last couple of years.

I inherited my Great-Grandfather's silver dollar collection. He didn't collect them as a hobby, they were left over from the great depression. That was the only money he used/trusted then, and kept everything he had on the farm(didn't trust the banks.) I use one of his silver dollars. I like the weight and size, and it means something to me. Not sure what he would think of me sitting on my butt in a Casino though.
