Tourney Best Paulson colors for a solid tourney set (1 Viewer)

[Frank]

Here's my idea for a way larger than necessary tournament set:

250 T25 Dark Green or Day green
250 T100 Blaze orange
120 T500 Blurple
300 T1,000 Canary yellow/yellow
200+ T5,000 Day Blue
200+ T25,000 Radiant Red (might not be this exact color)
120 T100,000 Charcoal
60 T500,000 Plum

I already have some of these, and decisions are based on appearance and amount for optimum starting stacks (my idea for now was 30 players max). My concerns are with day green/day blue. Do you think they will be fine in the same set if there are 3 denominations spaced in between them? I'd love to replace the dark green T25 with day green if manageable.The idea here is to have the possibility of a T10,000 or a T500,000 tournament stack with different colors, or similar starting stacks.

Initially I wanted blaze orange as T1000 but radiant red was too close. I don't think they'll ever see the felt at the same time the way they are now.

I really like the colors of T1,000 to T100,000. Plum I feel like could be changed but I don't know what to.

I'd love to hear any ideas of different arrangements or colors. And if there's no solution for both starting stacks, maybe it would be a good time to stop buying chips

Day green looks darker in the pics:

A T25 and T5,000 usually aren't on the table at the same times. Even if they were, the colors aren't that similar that there would be an issue.

They're both great colors to have in a set in my opinion.

If you're using T500,000 starting stacks, I might make the largest denom a T250,000 chip instead of a T500,000 chip. (although I haven't really looked at how the chip breakdowns above would work for a T500,000)

If you're planning on not using labels/denoms on the chips, you could make the T25 Day Green double duty and have it be both the T25 and T250,000, since they won't be on the table at the same time. Or go with Dark Green T25 and Day Green T250,000

I have some solid Paulson roulettes and have thought about a solid tourney set myself. And I started playing around and found a cool way to make a chip lineup. Starting with your color scheme, I came up with this:

Going with more of a standard WSOP color scheme for the lower denoms -- but this wouldn't work if the Blaze Orange looks too close to Radiant Red in person.

I used the Paulson Color pics in the Resources tab on PCF, saved the thumbnail pics to my computer (p.s. when saving, I had to type the .png), and then accidentally discovered I had a chip lineup generator in Windows Explorer by just adjusting the thumbnail size so they all fit in one line and renaming the files with the denom first (I couldn't use commas because they ruined the sort by name).

My picks for a Paulson solids tourney set:

T5 = Radiant Red
T25 = Day Green
T100 = Charcoal
T500 = Petunia
T1000 = Canary Yellow
T5000 = Blaze Orange
T25K = Blue,Grain
T100K = White
T500K = Mexican Rose

Not quite sure how to save it exactly like that. Here's a couple different sets I don't mind:

T5-T25-T100-T500-T2,000-T10,000-T50,000 for each of these right now, but I don't really like T5s. Might prefer T1,000s too.





Or I could just stop thinking altogether and use the lineup chosen in the post above
