Hello I'm looking to buy a tina custom set for a cash game for 25c-50c and 50c-$1 blinds, 6-8 people on average. max 200bb with rebuys
What would an ideal amount of chips be for this set and the specific denominations to play both stakes comfortably?
Regards

A common suggestion for 600 chips would be 100/200/200/80/20 of 25¢/1/5/25/100 for a bank of $5225. This gives you downward flexibility to 25¢-25¢ and you can play your 50¢-1 game with those blinds or use 1-1 blinds instead and leave the quarters out on those nights.

With 8 people, this would give you enough bank for an average over $600 per player. So 3 buy-ins of 200 BB and you should be covered. If that seems excessive, 100/200/240/60 or 100/200/250/50 (no 100s) might be good with the 25 being the largest chip. Still over 300 BB per player on average and a few more fives which work well as a "workhorse" chip.

Just a couple of ideas.

Also, I'm a big fan of @Chris Manzoni 's videos as well .

A second thought. If you want to consider a 50¢ / 1 / 5 /25 breakdown. (no quarters, and your lower game would change to 50¢-50¢ blinds instead of 25¢-50¢) maybe you go for 40/260/240/60 (or 50/250/250/50 if required to buy in 25s) to lower the amount of your set you put into blind chips and get more volume in your two workhorse denominations, the 1 and the 5.
