Talk:Edward O. Thorp's Casino Chip/@comment-4273152-20160626230252/@comment-1674153-20160628004250

Let me be clear, then. I don't want this artifact deleted. I think a poker chip that traps people in a room is a brilliant display of creativity. Where you have lost me is on the note that this artifact is compelling people to stay in a room through fear of physical pain, the reasons for which I could not discern by reading the page proper nor looking up Edward Thorp. Now that you've managed to explain to me that the fear of physical pain comes from his fear of being evicted by security, a process I wasn't aware involved violence until you implied that it did, it is much clearer to me what angle you were approaching in the creation of this artifact. Thank you for explaining.
