Sitting Out
Hey! So I’m working buying my first cash and tournament set out of the DDLMs and trying to figure out break downs for each. I was planning on using 4 colors for cash and 5 for tournaments. We typically have 6-8 people.
In terms of cash we only play .25/.50 with typical buy-in ranging from $25-40.
Starting Stacks would be 20/20/(1-5)
So I was thinking
200 x .25
200 x $1
150 x $5
25 x $20
For $1500 total and 575 chips
This one would accommodate the biggest scenario of a $50 buy in with a 200BB reload
But If I’m being realistic my friends do not buy-in/reload for that much or throw many $5 chips in so would it be more ideal to load up on the $1 as the work horse chip with a set like
200 x .25
250 x $1
100 x $5
25 x $20
For $1300 total and 575 chips
In terms of tournament we have been playing T25 20,000k with 1 table. 12/12/5/6/2 .
125x T25
140x T100
60x T500
125x T1000
50x T5000
For 500 chips in total
I know the recommended set up is 120/120/50/75/30 but I would be adding the 50 extra T1000 so I could give people reload with 10 T1000 and 2 T5000. They also prefer having more chips so this could give me the opportunity to give them 11 T1000 chips when we have less players. Added a few extras in case of lost chips and for rounding ups
I would greatly appreciate any advice or recommendations!
