… as fast as possible.

Kenny Rogers once said:

“You’ve got to know when to hold ’em
Know when to fold ’em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run

You never count your money
When you’re sittin’ at the table
There’ll be time enough for countin’
When the dealin’s done”

I think I made a decent compromise here of counting them as fast as possible. I stacked 79 poker chips in one minute breaking the previous Guinness World Record’s title of 75.

I’ve spent a fair amount of time stacking things as quickly as possible which is what makes this record possible.

I also enjoy a little Texas Hold ’em (low stakes only), and while my math background from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology seems like it might be handy, it’s really not helpful for this record, nor for playing poker with the professionals (which I’ve never done).

I’m at 47 records submitted to Guinness in 2020. Can I do another 5 in the next 11 days?
