PCF meetup tourney where you buy in with a set of chips (1 Viewer)

[ovo]

What would that game be like. Where everyone buys in with a set of chips and winner takes all

 

[MD Mike]

That would be neat but you’ll have to have some sort of baseline where you say “only a set of chips worth X or between X and Y”. That way it’s relatively even

“I have 1000 super diamonds that equals to 700 CPC rounders right?”

Have the group playing come up with a set of customs for the event. Everyone pays for the cost of their own starting stacks. Winner takes them all home.

This is actually a pretty cool idea.

I think it could have some potential. Doesn't have to be a crazy set or anything plus it would take the place of a trophy.

 

[DoubleEagle]

Maybe a sample set plus cash.

A firearms forum I am a member of periodically would have poker tournaments where everybody would bring a box of range ammo as a bounty. That worked well. For poker chips you would want every body doing the same thing. ie a rack of starbursts or a rack of live casino ones. Something like that.

Horrible, horrible idea. Clearly none of you have ever tried to design a custom set by committee.

 

[Beakertwang]

Fair enough, @BGinGA.

I thought about that too. Keep it simple and meet up host gets the final say.

Or, a portion of the buy in goes towards the cost of the set designed by the host.

One way or another it could work out.

I like your positive attitude. I would buy in to this idea if someone was to run with it.

I'll watch from the sidelines and be the first to say I told you so when the design phase explodes.

If I ever run a meet up (which is unlikely), I'll do it, and it will work out just fine.

 

[abby99]

It might be easier if everybody bought in for cash and the winner could design and purchase his own chips.



Oh, wait . . .

 

[Chipandchair]

This is a cool idea.

If starting with 12-12-5-6-2-2-1($25, $100, $500, $1000, $5000 rebuy, $5000 add-on, souvenir chip) you are looking at 40 chips per person.

Even at $2-$3 a chip, this is an affordable buy in for a cool prize. For every 25 people that play, you could give away 1000 chip set.
Just keep it simple with a classic or simple inlay or even a hotstamp with some edge spots???

 

[Chipandchair]

Or just play for money

 

[Chipandchair]

Maybe a good idea for someone who just got a truckload of chips to sell though????

[Gobbs]

Seems like it would be a lot easier to play for money.

I work with a group that has done this every year for the last 20 years. And it takes about 6 months.
