Can I pack my own chips?

I really don't think they would say a word if you and some others were playing a cash game on the ship. However, there's no way in the world they will allow you to promote an open game, much less reserve a lounge for it. I would expect any talk in the casino that goes beyond "wouldn't it be great if" might get you a word or two from the pit boss. I don't know how you could pull it all together unless you already had arranged something with folks via something like a roll call thread. 

 

Also, I don't know that I'd be terribly keen on joining such a game. I love poker, and I expect you're an honest, good natured fellow. However, an invitation from some random other passenger for a private game would get my spidey sense tingling something fierce. 

 

 

 

Brings to mind Paul Newman playing cards on a train in the movie The Sting.

I just discovered a few chips from a Celebrity cruise in a small handbag. No idea which one.🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m guessing they’re useless now.

Still good. I’ve brought chips from one ship to another no problem. I got sick at the end of a cruise and didn’t cash them out. Just brought them on my next cruise and started using them. I guarantee you that people will jump on this thread and say that’s not possible but I’m living proof it is.

Yes me too.  Yes you can pack your own potato chips.  But they will be crushed somewhere in transit.😄

Is there a "chip" fee?

I have seen quite a pile of dollar bills on the table in big group LRC dice games.  No one said anything to us in the afternoons in the Martini Bar on S class but it was not a long drawn out exposure.  Still gambling...didn't ask permission..

 

Most likely because they were dollars, if they were $20s odds increase that the crew would interrupt the game

I am definitely not a gambler. My first thought was "why wouldn't they not let you bring POTATO CHIPS onboard?". LOL!!!!!  😂

Best thing about playing with potato chips is you can break them for change.

I stick with Scoop Chips. You can cheat and get much more ‘chip value’. But someone said a chip was $1……thats expensive even for a scoop type!!
