Blackjack chips
Once you are seated at a table, you'll need to purchase
some chips from the dealer for your bets. Wait for a break in the action,
and place your cash out in front of you on the table felt. (Some casinos
might make you wait until the dealer shuffles to join the game.) An
appropriate buy-in amount is anywhere from 10 to 20 times your average
bet. If you are a $5 bettor, this means a buy-in of $50-$100 is typical.
Don't try to hand your cash to the dealer. For security reasons, he can't
take anything from your hands. Simply lay the cash on the table; he'll
pick it up and change it for an equal value of playing chips. You won't
be getting any change back either. He'll change the entire amount, push
the chips across the table to you, and then drop the cash into a slot in
the table top. Chip colors are fairly standardized in the casino
industry, with red chips representing $5, green chips representing $25,
and black chips representing $100. You'll also see $1 value chips
(usually white) or $1 tokens (silver) on the table as well. Some casinos
also use a $2.50 chip that is usually pink in color. Chip colors above
the $100 denomination vary widely, with purple a common choice for $500
chips. Take a quick look at the chips to make sure that you know the
values, and that you were given the correct amount for your cash. If you
have any questions, just ask the dealer. Part of his job is to help
players learn the game. |
