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?

The answer to this question is that casinos have a very strict system of accountability in place to ensure that all transactions are tracked and accounted for. This includes having dealers count out chips at the beginning and end of their shift, having surveillance cameras to monitor transactions, and having periodic audits of chips and money. Additionally, casinos have very strict rules and regulations that dealers must adhere to, including not allowing them to give out chips to their friends.
