Backing up - if $5000 cheque means $5000 chip - the table craps BJ Baccarat whatever is NOT going to even let you play that $5000 chip until you identify yourself and they attach that chip verifiably to your player account.

That is the context I understand.
"Check" is a paper financial instrument, drawn on a bank ("Pay to the order of", sign on the reverse),
"Cheque" is a casino issued redeemable gambling chip (without ridges).
There are enough words, meanings, and spellings that sound alike in this context to be obnoxiously confusing. Confound that with the usual term on the player side of the table being "casino chip" rather than "cheque", and wacky fun ensues.

Yes exactly what I mean, sorry for any confusion. "Cheques play" is yelled all the time at the blackjack table and that's usually the game I'm talking about when I have to hide my identity. Poker players are more likely to call them chips.

Also relevant are calls like "foreign cheque", "cheque change 5000", or "cheque down". There may be others, but they don't come to mind.
As for poker players, tournament chips are not cheques.
May the cards fall in your favor.

I hear that pretty much only when it’s “to the limit” at the high end casinos I play at. Actually you don’t even hear the “checks play” as much as just “to the limit.” At someplace like TI, which ceased to be high end once MGM sold it, a dealer will still say “checks play” and turn to look at the pit boss over just a couple grand.

Are you betting much more than $25K per hand or is this not Black Jack?

I’m not going to state what my special limits are but the above sessions included bets up to $250k a hand at Baccarat.

I'd be buying-in with 45X $25K chips and 5X $100K chips and trying to triple-up.
