As I stated in my earlier introduction post I am looking to determine chip values for a chip set purchase. I am sure that a ton of people go through this same process. I found various calculators online, none of which quite did it for me so I put together some simple “cards” in Excel - but I can't attach Excel files (or pdf's) to a forum post. So instead I attach some screen prints instead - if anyone can help me upload the .xlsx files(maybe an Admin?) please PM me
The spreadsheets shown in the png files I have built are pretty straightforward : :
I’d appreciate feedback on these, anyone see anything fundamentally “wrong”? Could these be useful to anyone else?
The spreadsheets shown in the png files I have built are pretty straightforward : :
- “Cashgame.xlsx” shows chip denominations and number of chips in the starting hand and number of stacks of each denomination needed for everything from a $10, 5c/10c game up to a $100 $1/$2 game. For some buy in amounts I show multiple options (eg: the $10 game has 5c/10c, 10c/20c and 25c/50c options) and I also show the BB multiple of the starting stack.
- “Tournament.xlsx” (what we call tournament is when the chip value is a multiple of actual cash paid to join the game – we keep it simple with 5x and 10x multiples so people can do the math in their head). Interestingly with only 2 exceptions (both in the 1000x multiplier) the buy-in is always 100x the BB.
