I posted this previously in the wrong section and didn't get any replies so thought I would try again here.
I'm trying to put together a 100pc heads-up set. I know that this horse has been beaten to death on this forum, but very specifically I want to build something for playing fairly deep at 200BB. I looked at the WSOP HU tournament structure and their first round has a starting stack of 60k with the first few blind levels of:
1. 200-300
2. 200-400
3. 300-600
...
The rest is standard and can be inferred. I've narrowed my breakdown choice to the following two (both with T100/T500/T1000/T5000 chips):
1. 20/8/14/8
2. 15/7/20/7 (49 chips rather than 50 but that's okay)
I'm not sure which of these is better. I would go with the first one if the T100's will eventually get colored up to T1000's, but I kind of want the set to be self-contained and I don't think having 100 chips on the table for two players is that many as to requiring coloring up anyway. At which point the second distribution makes more sense to me because the T1000 is much more of a workhorse chip than T100 so one would need more of it.
Critique and suggestions of my thinking would be appreciated!
