Cash Game Breakdown help for different stakes. (1 Viewer)

[bibarel]

Hello! I know there are a lot of other threads with breakdowns for micro/small stakes, and I'm wanting some advice on what to get in addition to the chips I already have. I want to be able to play at a variety of stakes. .05/.10c, .10/20(.25c), .25/.50, .50/1, and possibly 1/2.

Currently I have:

200 - .25
200 - $1
150 - $5
50 - $20

I think I have more than enough quarters and maybe enough 1s. I want to get 1000 chips and so far thats 600. My idea is to get a rack of .05, but then I don't know what to do with the others 300 (after the nickels). I think the obvious thing is to get more 5s and 1s. But I'm also unsure if I just have enough ones to cover it all; additionally should I get more 20s?

Any advice would be appreciated!

I believe that the best universal 1000 chip count set is 100/200/400/200/100. The gentleman and scholar @gopherblue agrees too:

For your lower stakes, I personally don’t mind dividing, so if you want to play 5/10c or 10/20c you can issue starting stacks of $200 and divided by 20 or 10. Some are allergic to this though, so you can skew your denominations lower if you are too.

And some of us quibble and prefer 100/300/300/200/100. Choose your poison.

If the format of chips are A/B/C/D/E and and you play the majority of your games with B and C as the workhorse, this makes complete sense. Both seem great to me

Just get 400 each of everything, except just 200 of the smallest and largest denominations. Guaranteed ample coverage for all stakes.

Interesting. I was going to post a similar thread earlier today seeking advice on an ideal breakdown for a 1000 chip set that will cover $1/$2, $2/$5, $5/$10, $10/$20 and possibly $20/$40.

I think u can consider using $10 demo for 5/10 0/20 20/40 like some of the Vegas casino using for their game

I personally will make a set for $1/$2 to $5/10 stake and another set for 10/20 to $20/40 stake
