Straight Flush
I don’t know what kind of set you are looking at, custom, stock, real casino, but I would advocate to get enough chips now to cover potential growth of your game. The chips you buy now may not be readily available later or at all.
having 20 $100 chips adds a lot of bank to the set but doesn’t add much cost to the set as whole.
I have had sets that I ran out of chips and had to pull $100’s from another set to add more bank for the game. I tried to add more $100’s but I couldn’t find them very easily and the cost was more than when I first bought the set.
My ideal 800 chip set break down to cover the widest stakes of games would be:
25c—100
$1–200
$5–400
$25-80
$100–20
Total bank of $6225.
5 years ago or so my game was 25/50c and $1/1 $200 max and this would cover those games.
now it is $1/2 and $300 starting stacks with bigger rebuys and that bank would never be enough. So now I go with a full rack of $100’s as well to make sure I have enough bank.
You don’t know how your game will grow and change. If this is a one time purchase (especially customs) make sure you get enough bank to handle the future.
