Fake chips at the WSOP
Wow ... this is really interesting. Be on the look out TP!
Two black souvenir poker chips that are nearly indistinguishable when stacked with actual $100 chips being used in the World Series of Poker were discovered in play during an official event Tuesday, raising concerns among tournament organizers of a new form of cheating. |

I heard that a while ago, So I'm not sure if it's in the article you posted, but:
Although the Tourney Directors replaced the fakes with "real" chips at equal value, If any players are caught with fakes they will be disqualified.  Pissed off about that 1 outer you lost on the river? Slip in your "card protector". Then report the bastard!

I wondered about this last year. Another thing I wondered about was buying in to a cheap event and pocketing however many chips... and then using those to give your stack a boost at a higher buy in. Last year (if I remember correctly), the chips were the same for all of the tourneys except for the Main Event.... so doing this would have been very easy.

Really? When and where? You can't just make an accusation like that without backing it up.
