I'll Take a Stab..
In Response To: Sorry for the confusion.. ()

Does The Chip Rack list all Poker tournament chips? The U.S. Casino price guide does not.

I'm going to take a wild guess what it could be and I could be very wrong but here goes:

Using Sam's Town - Las Vegas, as an example..

Their Poker Tournament Chips start in NCV denominations of 5, 25, 100, 500, 1000, etc.

However, their nightly poker tournaments start with blinds of 25/50..so the NCV5 chips are never used for the evening tournaments. I have seen Sams Town NCV5's there, but they are only used for the small $23 buy-in morning tournaments, where blinds start at 5/10.

Maybe the NCV 5's were briefly used at the Holiday Casino, but were quickly pulled because they weren't used, since blinds usually start at 25/50.

Just a guess, and I'm prolly wrong..but I'm bored here at work, so I thought I'd take a swing.. :-)
