Pretty sure it's tourney,stakes are 50/100 maybe something else if there is less than that but more than 25/50Cash or tourney? Stakes? 57BB's ?
For a tournament, I like to see 100 big blinds to start.Pretty sure it's tourney,stakes are 50/100 maybe something else if there is less than that but more than 25/50
The problem here is that I have a set with 5,10,25,50,100,500 and 1000 as the nums on the chips.I can put the 500 and 1000 aside and play with 5/10 blinds with each player having 114 BBs or play with the 500 and 1000 and play 50/100 and each one having 57BBs.I can also use the 500 and 1000 for a 3 players game which i play the most and play with 50/100 or 75/150.what do u think I should do?For a tournament, I like to see 100 big blinds to start.
You can do less (most casino tourneys do less)
Is turbo just a faster and shorter game and no changes of rules?if so,than how long do u estimate it to be?Too short. Would play like a turbo if that's what you want.
Ok thank you man i have a poker fever and i took this whole poker set serious.As i can see i can either play a turbo game or a regular game with rules i gave in the previous comment which seems awesome but i think i might have to remind them to bet a BB or up cause when the stakes are 50/100 but you have 5,10,25,50 they'll just bet 50 or 25 or 75.Sorry to bother you with this unimportant comment,again thanks for giving me a green light to start playing home gamesthen go with what you have. 57 BB's
Yeah i didn't understand myself too,all i trying to say is by my comment i can play both turbo and tourney and i want to thank you for giving me a straight answer to start playing home games.Sorry, you lost me.....
A turbo is just a tournament that is shorter due to starting stack size, blinds speed, blind increases. It's really up to you if you want a fast tournament or not. You can run a tournament that lasts like 2-3 hours or up to as long as you want. I prefer 5-6 hours max because usually there will be a cash game starting once enough people bust.Is turbo just a faster and shorter game and no changes of rules?if so,than how long do u estimate it to be?
Can u also read my comment to Jambine and tell me your opinion
I still don't know what's the difference between cash and tourney.I may be late to the party here but my opinion is with your set you should consider cash over tournament. It would make for an extremely cheap cash game (games among friends shouldn't be about cash profit, it should be about having fun) but your set could work out good for your denominations to represent Agora. Would be a cheap game, but it works out for your set.
So after how many rounds i increase the blinds?and do you think that even if there are 500 and 1000 the starting blinds can be 5/10 and then increase?A turbo is just a tournament that is shorter due to starting stack size, blinds speed, blind increases.

Starting stack and starting blinds choice just depends on how much play you want and how long you want the tourney to run.
Cash games the blinds stay the same and people can rebuy as many times as they want.I still don't know what's the difference between cash and tourney.

Tournaments have one buy-in for a set amount and blinds continuing increasing. If you lose all your chips, you're ot. You play too one winner.
Wow so i got it all mixed up,tournaments and turbo are the same?Cash games the blinds stay the same and people can rebuy as many times as they want.

Tournaments and turbos are the same. Turbo is just a short, fast tournament. Stack size does matter. The smaller it is, the faster the tournament. As blinds increase, you may need larger denominated chips in play.Wow so i got it all mixed up,tournaments and turbo are the same?
So if i play tourney the stack size doesn't matter cause i can start with 5/10 and go up to 50/100 so my 500 and 1000 will come in handy?
And for cash i can use 90-100BBs for each player and just play with the same BBs untill we are done?
If i have 500 and 1000 denominations do u think i should stop in 50/100 or 75/150?or depending how long we want the tourney to last,is there a way to find out how long it'll last if we start from 5/10 and i'll calculate the stack's worth?Tournaments and turbos are the same. Turbo is just a short, fast tournament. Stack size does matter. The smaller it is, the faster the tournament. As blinds increase, you may need larger denominated chips in play.
For cash, 100BBs to start is good. Cash games run as long as you want them to. There is no hard stop ending like in tournaments.
In a cash game, the chips represent REAL money. I buy in for $50.00 and you give me 50 $1.00 chips. These are checks drawn on your bank. You are responsible for cashing those checks at face value at the end of the game.I still don't know what's the difference between cash and tourney.
I think i solved how I can play cash and tourney butWhat is the breakdown of your set, how many of each denomination do you have?

By saying serious i mean that i take the game serious and want to improve and not the fact that I played only 2/3 months and lately decided to improve my game.No trolling here brotherGood lord my head hurts. He’s a serious player but doesn’t understand difference between tourney and cash games?
Has to be a troll.
Ok. I misunderstood. But I’m going to recommend you do some serious reading to learn more about the game. Good luck.By saying serious i mean that i take the game serious and want to improve and not the fact that I played only 2/3 months and lately decided to improve my game.No trolling here brother
