| On the way home from last night, I decided to stop in at Commerce and try something I've been thinking of doing for the last week or so. The game is $1/$2 limit hold'em. Most folk buy the $1 chips. Me, I asked for the Fifty Cent chips. Cashier says "A rack of peach?" "Yes Please" I respond. So I take my rack of peach and walk to the board ask that my initials be placed on the 1/2 list. Have fun watching the Dodger game on the overhead screens and getting funny looks from people walking around, when they notice what I am holding. Finally I'm called to a table and sit down. Just as I get my chips out of the rack [though you may play from the rack at Commerce] the dealer asks if he can sell me $10 in $1 blues for two columns of peach. I say sure, make the change and proceed to place them near the rail and put up a BB of two peach chips. I get a few more strange looks but the dealer is happy that he has one less call for a chip runner to chop blues / cash, for the rake and jackpot drop boxes. I only played for the next two hours with the peach chips, [4 or 5 hands] but I more than triple my buy in, and get almost no respect, at a very loose 1/2 table. I've been giddy at work all day today just thinking about it. I wonder what I'll do today, since I don't have to work tomorrow. Maybe play a tourney and refuse to color up... |

Hehe, you would definitely get some looks... after all, you were screwing with a tightly guarded colour scheme.. peach just doesn't go, man  |

Haha, not tried that one before, thats for certain!
I'm sure you would get a few funny looks, even more so if you tried to sit down at a 5/10 table with them |

Can you imagine? You'd be carrying your own bodyweight in chips to those larger limit tables!
Come on though, you can't mess with the mans colour scheme! Dealers and players alike take mixing ant matching very carefully, and peach just doesn't do it. Not only that, people think they've hit the 50 cent table when they see those knocking around |
