I used to think it was some kind of process like a cashier till where the dealer would pick up a tray with X amount of chips, and then have to turn it in where everything is counted and reconciled somehow.
But I saw in a movie (never been to a casino myself to gamble) where one dealer would just walk up and tag-out another dealer and take over their spot. It made me wonder how everything was accounted for.
What’s to keep a dealer from slipping an extra $500 chip every once in awhile to their buddies?

High denomination cheques are tracked fairly tightly so a dealer’s only opportunity to try to send out extra without being noticed easily would be when a high roller is at their table. But in that case, their supervisor will spend more time watching the game than normal, making it harder not to get caught. Realistically, a skilled and careful crooked dealer could steal small amounts of moment for some time, but in the long run it is more likely than not that they will be caught, due to the level of surveillance in a casino.
