The term “color up” means that you want to exchange a bunch of smaller denominations for a few larger ones. You say to the dealer, “I’d like to color up,” when you have too many of a smaller denomination, or when you’re ready to leave the table. The dealers will most likely insist that you do this before you leave even if you don’t have a lot of money. If you don’t ask them, they will say to you, “Color?”
