When a new $200 is issued I have a demand from about 25 collectors who want one. As in a previous post I said they don't care if the mintage is 50 or 500 they want one. This Four Queens release is no different. I will try to supply these collectors with their request without "hogging" the machine. I am not trying to acquire any more of these $200 strikes than I would at any other casino. I did not create the mintage, the Four Queens did, and if they had decided to issue 250 of each $200 strike I very much doubt if I would be accused of "hogging" the machine.

If an out-of-towner wants to play the strike machine I offer it to him or her. Sometimes they say O.K. and sometimes they say they will come back later.

As far as speculating I could care less if I have any left over after I fill my orders.
