Considering that the game of poker didn't come into existence until the mid-18th century (at least that's what Wikipedia says), I'd be surprised if poker chips existed before then. It's more likely people would be using actual coins instead of tokens that represent coins.

However, at least one casino existed in TL4: Il Ridotto. (Again, according to Wikipedia)
