My Dice Chip Set: Help me work it out (1 Viewer)

[thegioserg]

I’m an impatient millennial who wants to introduce poker his friends. I have the table, topper, chairs, and libations. I’m ready to play!

My only dilemma, I’m stuck with a disproportionate dice chip set. But don’t be disgusted with me yet! I have samples on the way. So once I figure out what chips I want, what stakes/format we want to play – and if I even have friends – I’ll be upgrading my chips.

In the meantime, would any of you seasoned chippers help me out with my set? 100 each of 5 colors: white, red, green, blue, and black.

Can this at all be turned into a usable 5c/10c set?

I can seat 8 at my table, so I don’t plan to have more than that.

I could probably host a T5 tournament with this set, but I’m worried that a tourney isn’t that beginner friendly.

TIA for any wisdom you can share.

Always usable, good job upgrading.

Sure! Whites are nickels, reds are quarters, greens are dollars and blacks are $5. It wont be an optimal breakdown or anything but it works fine, just be ready to make change more often. When people lose their money and buy back in, make sure to just give them one of the higher denoms and they can make change with the table.

First buyins, give 10 nickels (50c), 10 quarters ($2.50), and fill the rest in with dollars. When people buy back in, make it $5s and dollars.

If you have a bunch of casino players (which at 5c/10c I usually doubt) you may prefer blue/black/white/red/green, but whatever works.

Yeah, 100 of each is fine. First 2 players get 20 nickels, 20 quarters, and 4 dollars. Everyone else gets 10 nickels, 10 quarters, and 7 dollars. After that people buy back in with dollars and when you run out, $5s, then make change with other players at the table.

Assign whatever value you want to each chip, but don't play the black and blue because they're the most similar in appearance. You'll only need 4 colors for 5c/25c/$1/$5
