The green chips are only worth 25 each, and are still in play solely to cover the antes. Rebello has about 60 of these chips, making his relatively small 12,000 physically look like a big stack.
While Dannenmann's table is having some fun with Rebello, many players consider a stack like that a sign of a good, aggressive player.
