We both had a fourth place finish last year at BARGE. Mine was in the History of Poker Tournament. Michael Hunter knocked me out when he drew the joker to make a wheel & beat my pat 6,4.

As for the Horseshoe chips......I think it was 1998 when I first saw some new $5's in with the wafer thin chips. I ended up with a stack after going through a few racks.........Andy - Las Vegas
