[I have no idea if the gaming regulations part is true or not]
All depends on if it is in the rules they have approved by the state gaming commission or not. Some rooms may just say we don't want bigger denom chips in the game so they try to check down any they see and other rooms may actually have it in their ruleset. The ruling would, and should, be very different between those rooms.
