<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Midas, post: 68251, member: 2761&quot;]Look at it this way.&nbsp; I enjoy playing cards with my buddies.&nbsp; We could play cards for jelly beans or we could play for money.&nbsp; We are both playing the same game, but now that &quot;money and value&quot; are added to the pot instead of jelly beans, it makes the game more interesting and enjoyable.</p><p><br /></p><p>So that is the added <u>bonus</u> of collecting coins...add that to the thrill of the search, the thrill of filling a slot, the thrill of holding history in your hand, the thrill of artistry found over a very small area...and finally the thrill that everything I mentioned is actually <u>worth</u> something is icing on the cake.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW...my house rule when we play poker.&nbsp; No chips, no plastic...just hardcore U.S. coins.&nbsp; We play with Kennedy&#039;s and Sac&#039;s only.&nbsp; I like the sound of them as they are added to the pot.&nbsp; Of course they don&#039;t sound like a silver piece (a Morgan dollar from the Old West), but they look &quot;good&quot; when you see gold and silver colors in the pot.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
