Chip Denominations. Do they matter? Help.



Posted Sat Jun 11, 2005 6:40 pm GMT by gettym
K so I am starting a weekly poker game, and bought like 4 packs of cheap poker chips... i have 200 white and 100 red/blue in total, basically just wondering what are the best denominations, is it completley arbitrary? Ideas for increasing blinds? I don't want to get down to the final 2 and have the blinds out of whack for the amount of chips we have....Thanks for any help.

BTW this weekly game is for 4 people.

Normally it's:
White 1
Red 5
Blue 10

I have a similar number of people as you, maybe a little more sometimes. If I were you I would:

Start everyone with 20 ones, 12 fives, 8 tens.

Level 1- 1,2
Level 2- 2,4
Level 3- 5,10
Level 4- 10,20(By level 3,4 cashout the 1's for 5's and 10's)

Well I would probally do that, but that's just me. It's really aren't that professional, but it would be okay. Someone who knows alot more than me will probally make a better suggestion for you. Check this site for alot more help: http://www.homepokertourney.com/

Good Luck! -Matt
