I regularly hunt for poker chips outside the normal channels. I mainly search classifieds and less popular auction sites. Yesterday however, I bought a storage unit in Billings MT. Its a 12.5 hour drive from me but Ive got the next 4 days off work and fuck it, Im going to go see whats in there.
I bought the unit for 150 dollars. Its full of old poker equipment from what looks like a closed down card room in Billings. After scouring the chip guide I narrowed it down to only a handful of possibilities............... if it is indeed from a card room.
Im hoping its this card room........................ http://chipguide.themogh.org/cg_chip2.php?id=MTBIDE&v=2193258121
That cardroom was very close to this location and it ran 5 tables. It closed down shortly after this storage unit opened and by the looks of the pics this unit hasent been touched in years.
I cant see any chips in the pics but i see cabinets, atleast 2 of them and everything else in here is poker related. Im betting there are chips in those cabinets...........
I know this is a long shot..... I know its probably all trash and Im driving up there to clean out a unit, bringing the stuff to the dump, and driving home...... I know this is a dumb purchase....... But what if Im wrong? Lol
Wish me luck.......... on the road tomorrow
