This woman bets $5K, $10K, $15K, or $20K per hand so the lowest chip denom she needs is $500 for a blackjack.
I would need green chips though for when I bet odd numbers of hundred dollar chips, like $900 or $1500 and the like. Even numbers of $100 chips are OK to bet.
If I wanted to bet $750, I'd still need green chips.
Looking at previous videos here, there were green chips when there were no $10,000 chips in the dealer's tray. When she starts buying in for $50K or more is when the $10K chips show up.

So how many times a year do you play blackjack at the high roller table or for that matter, any table and buy in for $125k?

My cheapest betting chart for this kind of play with no green chips would be a $40K buy-in, but I'd be expecting a $1K-$200K bet limit, and for that I'd need a $2 million line of credit at least. But even so, I'd be betting $4.5K & $7.5K in there somewhere so I might have to top off those bets with an extra $100.
It's gonna be really difficult to get lines of credit to allow me to bet above the usual maximum. I'd have to dump a lot of winnings into front money and go from there.
I could probably get by with a $25K max bet limit on this chart, but it will cut me off from a progression that could net me $1 million with 14 wins in a row.
As with many of my buy-ins, the win goal could be up to 10X the buy-in, or over $400K. If I won a million on top of that, it'd be $1.4 million, I don't know why I need a line of credit when the chips are right in front of me on the table.
I wonder if the $100 chips disappear when the $25K chips are in the tray, and if the $500 chips disappear when the $100K chips are in the tray. I may have to migrate to different high limit tables during my session.

But it's just pretend money play. If she'd lost, just start the video from scratch. About as impressive as Derren Brown flipping ten heads in a row.
I guess playing blackjack for YouTube is for entertainment purposes whether it's played with real chips or fake chips, but don't bet at home what the next card is gonna be, the video is already finished.
Quote: ChumpChangeI hadn't noticed the videos were play money. I can't read the chips too closely to see if a casino was mentioned on them. There's nothing in the channel description that says it's play money. Seems like a baseless accusation. Maybe the dealer's hands are different in different videos (psst, maybe they aren't)?

The channel description does say "for entertainment purposes only".
The immediate clues that it wasn't a live table:
Wrong kind of chip tray
No drop slot/paddle
Missing table ID markings
Wrong kind of shoe
Wrong kind of discard tray
Wrong kind of cards
"Home" type layout
Atypical dealer procedure (sweep)
... but I only watched for a minute, so I probably missed something.
(I keep thinking of all the other things I didn't list... can you find at least 4 other clues?)
There are many out there that are almost on the edge of legit and almost make it look real

How about..... "Dear casino, please may I maintain a tripod mounted camera above my head, showing your totally unbranded table and chips. May I further publish that on a monetized YouTube channel without giving your organisation so much as a shout out? Oh.... And I won't be tipping or drinking."
And then there's this one!Quote: heatmap

It doesn't matter what the payout odds are if you can't cash your chips.

But it is an advantage play if you can just forget about losing sessions.
Actually, it's a real advantage play for the channel owner who risks nothing and gets paid Youtube commissions.

Well, with upwards of 7000 subscribers, hopefully they can soon recover the $200 or so invested in a Brybelly home blackjack set.
(I think I'm slipping. It took way too long to identify the cards, but they did match the plastics and at least one style of their layout. I'm curious where they got the peek contraption; they seem to be in short supply these days, and it is not a style I instantly recognize.)

Hey now, the chips are branded... they're from the Monte Carlo Poker Club, also available from Brybelly!

Edit: Fixed the link... I hope.
So I found the chips from my original post here.

Genius.
Note the peek device not in all her vids. Chalk that as another clue
Probably another $40 to recoup.

Did they disable downvoting, or just decide to not publish the tally?
Not sure how I feel after adding a dozen views to their metrics over the past few days.
... so yeah, it mitigates the trolls hate-piling on some new content creator, because the decision makers need new content to drive ad views, and they want to boost traffic by boosting goodfeels rather than sour participation among the indiscriminate masses.
Complaints may be directed to the usual suspects.

Not sure how I feel after adding a dozen views to their metrics over the past few days.A disproportional number of public figures have been trending to hyperbolic boosterism for decades. Watch a TV chef; they're likely to expound on the virtues of this most amazing avocado or whatever. There was a guy who complained about restaurants trying to talk up "figs on a plate". Coffee shops are trying to sell "the experience", but usually their coffee sucks or you have to wait 20 minutes while the barista milks the goat out back so you can get the freshest most amazing froth atop your lungo mocha. Casinos are more worried about the luxurious decor than offering a decent game.

wastes my time seeing stupid or misleading videos.
but i get your point that youtube constantly needs new content creators.
i guess drawing in more suckers to view videos outweigh those that stop watching their videos (ie: me) because of their down voting decision

They don't make money off you not watching their videos.
Pretty sure the writing was on the wall once every serious channel added almost identical pleas:
"Click that like, and subscribe! It really helps us out. Also, be sure to check back often. I release new videos daily!"
