gkunit20 1 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Um, You are wrong. Those chip counts are not exact. They look at the chips and make a guess from there. The official chip counts on the WSOP added up to over 2m. The official chip counts here do not. Link to post Share on other sites
M101A1-105 0 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 There must have been a recent color up of $5k chips and an extra 1 million was added in for fun. This is the new trendy way to "add" some excitement to the event... Link to post Share on other sites

CrazyJoe 0 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 They really try to guess as accurately as 3,171,000?lol, they don't guess by looking at all the chips at the same time. they count by eye for each player and add them up. I think they try to be as accurate as possible, but all players don't stack their chips as organized as they could. Link to post Share on other sites
