General Discussion / Re: Early Computer Geeks-like ...
Last post by Barry Sherwood R-9037 (admin) - Feb 13, 2025, 06:48 PMHi Carol. I joined the CCA in 2019 and never had the pleasure of meeting Greg, but as you know, his name is synonymous with all things collectible as far as casinos go, and I'm grateful for everything he did to help create the club that exists today.

General Discussion / Early Computer Geeks-like Greg
Last post by Carol Susong Weigand - Feb 13, 2025, 06:16 PMTo all of you long time friends and chip cronies of Greg's, know you're not forgotten and I think fondly of you often.
Most recently you're in my thoughts as I read Bill Gates' "Source Code", the first part of his biographical trilogy that just came out this month.
Bill details his recollections of how he started Microsoft. So much of Greg's early entry into computer programming (he bought his first PC in early '81) parallels those early years for Gates.
If my memory serves, there are a few of you guys who conversed with Greg pre-internet on bulletin boards. It's a good read; I think you early pioneers in the PC market will enjoy Gates' telling of this part of history.
I see the club is still presenting the annual award in his memory—how kind and thoughtful of you.
My best to everyone!
Love,
Carol

Today's... / Re: Found 17 year old cards
Last post by srevilo123 - Feb 10, 2025, 12:07 PMI browsed the internet and found that around 15 years ago there were expekt casino live streams and I think that's the cards I have. I have lots of those decks, so if they were mass-produced, they should be sold online. I think they're pretty rare considering the fact no one sells them. They also feel pretty good quality.

Last post by Barry Sherwood R-9037 (admin) - Feb 09, 2025, 10:40 PMHi. I've never heard of that brand or casino, though I found it online (not available in the US). Pretty nice find. I don't know what decks of cards like that go for. I searched for them online on eBay and some auction sites and didn't find any to use as a comparison. Hopefully, one of our card collecting members will see this and give you a better answer. Thanks for posting this. Always nice to see new stuff.

Today's... / Found 17 year old cards
Last post by srevilo123 - Feb 09, 2025, 10:19 AMToday I found around 17-year-old cards in my garage. They are unopened decks of expekt cards. Can anyone suggest a price for what I should sell them for?
