I found a bunch of defaced Geroge's Gateway chips at a flea market in Oroville about 10 years ago. There were $5 Geroge's Gateway chips and some 50 Cent chips from the Senator Bar in Carson City. The story I heard was that the chips were used in California after George sold the Gateway to Bill Harrah. You might want to try to find a copy of the July 1998 club magazine - Steve Passalacqua has a piece on an in depth interview with Barbara Cannon.
