Re: $ 3 Chip - Color and Availability
[ QUOTE ]
The Seneca Niagara casino in New York uses a mustard/tan color $3 chip for drops. I wanted one, but they wouldn't sell it to me! It says "poker room only" on the inlay. [/ QUOTE ] I got the $3 drop chips by playing poker. Only for about 30 mins. You can play one hand. Buy a $3 chip and leave. There's no time limit.

Re: $ 3 Chip - Color and Availability
[ QUOTE ]
Vineyards $3 are lime green. and if u are playing 3/6 theres no point to $3 chips because you still have to use $1 chips becuase of the blinds. [/ QUOTE ] Sure there is. It makes things much easier. Not to mention for a faster game as well. Plus if it takes 12 chips to cold call a raise on the last two streets, it's more likely someone would short change the pot (even with the best of intentions).

Re: $ 3 Chip - Color and Availability
They're unusual, so there's no "standard" like red $5, green $25, or black $100. Mohegan Sun (CT) used a $3 in the 3-6 game that was brown with green accents (called "turtles").
Some swear that playing with $1 chips made the game better because the pots looked bigger and encouraged more action. ETA - See for example this thread.
