$5 red plastic chip
$10 yellow plastic chip
$20 gray clay chip

I thought I was the only one nerdy enough to notice this stuff! You can edit the California colors there, or any other colors in any particular cardroom's article, so go knock yourself out. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

In AC colors are actually dictated by law. Sadly I believe this means it would be impossible to get a $2 chip for 6/12 :-( Well, maybe if you lobby enough, but I doubt the casino cares that much...

Typical non-California colors:
$1 white/blue
$2.50 pink
$5 red
$25 green
$100 black
$500 purple
$1k orange
$5k grey

$2, $3, $10, and $20 chips are uncommon outside of California except in a few vegas poker rooms (never, ever seen any of these in pit games).

Well, $2 chips aren't uncommon to anyone who's played the low-limits the past few years at Foxwoods! And I recall a $2 yellow at Casino del Sol in Arizona. But I grant you, there aren't too many non-CA rooms with $2 chips.

If I'm not mistaken I believe Mohegan Sun has a $3 chip for some purpose (the pics I saw had a turtle on them) but I don't know what those are used for, since they no longer have a poker room. Turning Stone has a $3 rake chip but it's not sold to the public.

$10 and $20 are used for the high limits at the Borgata and Bellagio, but AFAIK you're right that they never make it out of the poker room.

There is a room here that has 2 dollar yellow chips for 4/8. Here being Deadwood, SD and the casino is the Silverado. Have not sat in the game but I think only yellows and whites play.

The turtles were used for the $3-6 poker games. They are now obsolete, and no longer available.

You can find a few blue $20 and yellow $20 chips in AC, used for Pai Gow I believe but they find there way into poker rooms ocassionally.
