Low cost tournament set (1 Viewer)

[ThrowBack]

We don’t play many tournaments but we may do an occasional to help get new players in cheap.

We may do 2x a year and I really don’t have a nice cash set yet so I’d rather keep it under $200.

Looking for a T20,000 set for 12 people

Right now due to price I’m looking at a Monte Carlo or the outlaw chips, but I would be open to ideas

Nothing wrong with a good set of metal slug chips

If your players like shuffling chips make sure to get high quality chips without flashing on the rolling edge. I have some lower quality Monte Carlos and they are great colors, but the flashing really annoys some people.

I think the Monte Carlo or Outlaws are about the best of the inexpensive chips, and are great for a tourney set. I had the Monacos (which seem to be the same material as the Outlaws) and I was very happy with them.

For $200 bucks covering 12 people? I tell em to go fuck themselves if they complain about flashing lol.

I got my Monacos from Discount Poker Shop, and they didn’t have any flashing. They felt really nice and weren’t too slippery.

$25 x 150
$100 x 150
$500 x 75
$1000x 150
$5000 x 75

This should work well for 12 players, and will cover you up to 18 if needed.

No chip shufflers and I wouldn’t encourage them too become chip shufflers

Why on earth not? As a compulsive shuffler, I must say I take offense.

Don’t know if this math checks out but you should be able to get a 600 piece cards mold tourney set from the classifieds at around budget

Tropicana Evansville T25 sets are only $170 from the chiproom. https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/tournament-set-sale.102823/

How do those chips compare to something like the Milano china clays? They seem to be about the same price, but I cannot find any real info online about the Tropicana's.

I've never handled Milanos, so I don't know the difference. But I have a few extras of the Tropicanas on hand I could send you to check out.

Significantly better IMHO. I tried a bunch of China Clays when I was starting and didn't really like any of them. I've got a set of Tropicanas and they regularly see playing time amongst a rotation of some Paulson sets.
