(This text was recovered from a previous Barge chip site and has been lightly edited, if at all.) THE THEME: The theme for the 2014 BARGE Chipset comes from the luckiest (for me) outcome of a hand in the 2013 BARGE No-Limit Tournament. It was fairly late in the tournament, 4 tables left I believe, and I was in middle position with an M of about 10 when I looked at Ah5h. It was folded to me and I decided that this might be a good time for an all-in steal so I jammed. Uh oh, I got called by AA and figured that it was the end for me. But as Chic is my witness I flopped one wheel card and made a bicycle on the last two runners. From there I went on to win the tournament and that was the only time my tournament life was on the line with me an extreme underdog. There is a little more to it than that. I am also a dedicated cyclist; I logged around 3500 miles on my bikes last year. So this year’s theme is The Wheel. I am grateful to a number of people especially the members of the BARGE chip committee for making the 2014 chips a reality. I hope you like the design; in later posts I will tell the story of each chip in the collection and highlight the contributions of these friends. ...
