Hello from Germany!
My home game has been running for nearly two years now and I think it's time to get proper chips.
I have put some thought into this and read lots of related threads, but I'd like some feedback.
Most Games (currently)
1c/2c NLHE. Buy-Ins 0,50€ to 1€ with re-buys for some players while others do not ever buy back in. A lot of the players are still in university and do not want to play with "a lot" of cash (yet!). With 1c and 5c chips, the 5c is the workhorse. Most of the times it's 6-10 players.
=> Plan
100x 1c
200x 5c
200x 25c
100x 1€
Some Games (currently)
5c/10c NLHE. Buy-Ins 10€ to 20€ with re-buys. I'm getting started on establishing this group of dedicated poker players. 25c is the workhorse. This group is smaller with 6 to 8 players.
=> Plan
100x 5c
200x 25c
200x 1€
100x 5€
Future Games
25c/25c and/or 25c/50c with Buy-Ins 50€ to 100€. Since many of the group are starting to get proper jobs after finishing their degrees, I believe we might increase the stakes quite soon. I'd like to prepare for this. I think 1€ might be the workhorse here, but that might change to 5€? PCF seems to be all about "more fives!". I expect this group to be 6-8 players.
=> Plan
100x 25c
200x 1€
200x 5€
100x 20€
What I think I need
To be able to host all these stakes:
100x 1c
200x 5c
200x 25c
200x 1€
200x 5€
60x 20€
40x 50€
For a total of 1000 Chips.
I feel like less chips wouldn't work here.
Do you think that's a good breakdown and amount?
Thanks!
