a 8doller chip
what game would requir the use of a 8doller chip

[/ QUOTE ]

An $8 chip is not used for poker. THere is something about the number 8 that is "lucky" that sometimes casinos produce $8 chips for Chinese New Year.

[/ QUOTE ]

Its not used in any game, its a commemorative chip. They are selling Year of the Pig chips now I was told.

I am pretty sure if someone wanted to bet it in the pit they could. I don't really know much about them ecxept they are issued by some casinos for CHines New Year. This is the first I have seen one in Vegas, I am have seen them in LA before. They are probably common in Vegas, I just don't keep up with Vegas that much anymore.

I sat next to a guy playing tetris on his PDA in the Commerce 40-80 once. It requires a little more concentration than reading... but a little less concentration than 5-tabling [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Notwithstanding my earlier sarcasm, those would rock for $40/80. You'd have to use a couple of these:



for the SB though.

Just play with two big blinds. And yeah, those look like ones on the chart. $1503, then, counting the bill behind the stack.

I once saw a guy multireading poker books at a $40-80 mixed games table at commerce. He had TOP, Hi-Lo Split for Advanced Players and Super System and had them propped up on the table in front of him.
