What does checks play mean?
Chips are also known as checks. When they announce "checks play", they're saying " chips of higher denomination than usual for this table are being wagered". It typically only happens the first time you do it, as the supervisor is now aware that you're doing it.

"Checks (casino chips) play" usually is heard when someone bets $100 or more at a $5 or $10 table. Casinos pay attention to players who abruptly raise and lower their bets, that's a behavior of card counters.
