Instead of pennies or nickles, we would use for "betting chips" 1950 Bowman BB cards. I was real good at playing Black-Jack; and,
I would win many 1950 Bowman BB cards.
I guess that's why I found so many of them when I recovered the sportscards from my youth.

ha ha... that's awesome. We used to play dice (single / double / triple / homer / out / out) with cards... winner take all. But I sold all the cards I won for $25 when my family moved to LA when I was in 8th grade. I thought I needed the spending money. Stupidest deal ever.
