Don, Mel Jung can tell you the real story but all I know is that the card room is closed (and has been for a couple of years.) It was located next to a restaurant. Apparently a fire destroyed the card room but in any case they never did have much business. Opened only on certain nights at 6:00PM before the Hold-em craze hit TV. The owener was the manufacturer of the chips. Many of them are out amd I think one of our members bought a big "lot" of them.

There are, by the way, 2 versions of the $1.00 chip. They also have a $0.50¢, $1.50, $2.50, $4.00, $5.00 and a $25.00 chip inaddition to your $3.50.
