The record was set this week in Dublin, Ireland by the "Paddy Power Poker" team, it took 5 of them 72 hours to build the almost 10 feet tall tower consisting of about 75,000 chips.
The record also serves as an appetizer for players to visit the 2010 Irish Winter Festival, where the chip tower will be exhibited.
Paddy Power said, "We had our fair share of wobbles along the way and one complete collapse but we held our nerve and it was definitely worth it for the honour of a Guinness World Record. The giant stack is yet another reason to get down to the Burlington Hotel in Dublin for the Irish Winter Festival this weekend."
