Purchasing Chips
| Blackjack is played with casino chips instead of cash. The most common denominations are $1, which are usually denoted by white chips; $5, which are red and called nickels; $25, which are green and referred to as quarters; and $100, which are usually black. In order to purchase chips you will have to wait for a break in the action or until the dealer shuffles the cards. Do not try and hand your money directly to the dealer; as a security measure he is not permitted to take anything from your hands. Place the amount of money you wish to exchange for chips on the table in front of you, and he will replace it with playing chips of equal value. An appropriate buy in amount is anywhere from 10 to 20 times your average bet. Dealers keep no cash at the table so be careful to only put the amount of money you want to spend on chips in front of the dealer. Before you leave the table, the dealer will probably ask you if you want to exchange your smaller chips for larger denominations. This process is referred to as "color up" and is often done to get a few additional chips from someone who has not tipped the dealer at all. It is also done in part because dealers are able to keep change since no cash is kept at the table. You can either use these chips at other table games in the casino, or cash them in for money at the cashier's cage.
