Chips are the value tokens used by the competitors. They are color-coded to indicate their value.
Denominations
Poker Night 1
The color scheme is a reverse of the standard Red/Blue/Green denominations.
- Green = $100
- Blue = $500
- Red = $1000
Poker Night 2
The buy in and the denominations are doubled from the previous game. Winslow tells the contestants that it was instituted to "keep out the riff-raff", then gives the Player a sideways glance while muttering to himself that it obviously wasn't working.
- Green = $200
- Blue = $1000
- Red = $2000
Unlockables
The player can buy themed unlockables that change the looks of the chips, a feature that is purely cosmetic.
Different kinds of chips are only available in Poker Night 2 and are unlockable by earning enough inventory tokens and purchasing them. Each of the chips display the typical numbers, but written in the style of their respective series.
