Cash Game cash set breakdown (1 Viewer)

Do I detect a few of you have a gambling problem?

Kidding, but as someone who has only had two cash poker games he has been in, I do have to wonder...

Also the stakes were not that high. You bought in for 25 buckazoids and played until, well, the game host goes bankrupt. (literally that is how our last game ended)

Consider using one of those extra colors as 5c chips. Probably more useful in the long run; definitely more friendly. Would also allow ante/stud games to be played.

My guess: players that don't like the idea of cash game bounties never played with cash game bounties, or typically play in more "serious" games. It sounds to me like your game is very friendly. I strongly suspect you are going to have a lot of fun with bounties and/or bonuses.

If the game stays friendly, I would not be concerned about state laws or holding onto $2-$3 here and there. It could help drive attendance.

Note: I am not a lawyer, and nobody should violate local laws that they are absolutely sure about.

A 5 cent chip? that is a thought. If I ever get to add to that set (maybe another 100), that would be perfect.

Also, so I do not double post, Mr. Zombie, basically Melody's games are social gatherings where we play poker. it's definitely not something that leads to us not being able to wake up and look at each other afterwards. At our first game, a woman won $130 (!) And we were all joking about tax advice or buying the entire store of shoes.
That's what I want this game to be; just fun and a lower minimum bet. I keep hearing how 25BB games don't allow for fun betting, Melody has no chips below a half-dollar. (Also her chips are dice chips hot stamped). I will essentially play the same game with 25c/25c or 25c/50c blinds.

All of your ideas are going to become a reality. Pr0n coming in about 2 weeks. I genuinely think all your advice has made this set about as good as I can get. Also, please ignore the 310 x 39mm chips -- I increased the order to 540 chips and Gene forgot to update it.

My third and final set will probably be a Paulson of some kind (which won't be for a few months yet).
