Pick a T10,000 (1 Viewer)

[crussader]

For the Silver Eagle tournament set I have decided to go with a T100 base. Therefore, I want to add a T10,000 chip for re buys or deep stack structures. The rest of the lineup is fairly well set, but I'd like some opinions on the T10,000.

 

[Tommy]

I like the 2nd from the left. (the last one is nice too)

 

[Jonesey07]

3, 4, 2, 1 is my order.

 

[Coyote]

4, unless otherwise dictated by a medium shade of green on your felt
In the latter case, 2.

 

[dickzapper]

I like 4 because the black spot in the pattern stands out as a high denom. But I'd like to see how it looks with a white insert too.

 

[Milo013]

3, 1, 4, 2.

 

[Justin Olson]

3,4,2,1 you sure you don't want 20k or 25k?

Far right wins. Then second from the right as a runner up.

 

[Tommy]

These inlays are great too by the way. (y) :thumbsup:

 

[RichMahogany]

2, then 4 for me

 

[Numerobis]

I too play T100 based tourneys, and we use a lot of T10,000. I like most #1

I would also consider increasing the denom font

 

[Wils]

2nd from the left. More harmonious with itself and the others.

I like #2. Bright tends to win out for me.

 

[BELGRADE]

I like this one

This will be a 20 player set with a standard 20K starting stack. I thought about making the re buy/deep stack chip a T20k, but then it would never be more than a place holder. A T10k chip might never get into actual play either, but at least it would have a chance to. Also, it would provide the option of 30K starting stacks. I decided it's only 20 more chips to use the T10k, so why not?

Thanks. It's a plan B design I threw together in Powerpoint as a placeholder.

I'm probably going more in this direction...

Although, I could do something more dramatic like this...

..More harmonious with itself and the others.

This is my number one priority.

That seems to dictate a light green base. I had initially planned to use the light green as a T25 because it blended so well with the set. My concern with using as a T10k is it might not have enough punch for the top end chip. The #2 chip does seem like a good fit, but I'm still playing with other spot patterns to see if I can add some strength without destroying the balance of the set.

Love 10k chips , always liked them better than the 25k

 

[krafticus]

3, 4, 2, 1 is my order.

same for me

 

[BeesKnees]

I’d pick #3, I prefer the darker base.

 

[Coyote]

Not being sure about my eyes, glasses and screen (in that order), I 'd just describe my vote, at the point you are now:
Light Green 8D18 w RetroGreen and Black

 

[crussader]

Eyes, glasses, and screen are working just fine!

 

[krafticus]

What about a retro green base with Green/DG green spots. I don't think retro green gets enough love

 

[Coyote]

@krafiticus: Sure, retro colors are the most classic / archetypal ones and clearly the best if other specific considerations (general style and concept of a set, desired inlay background color, playing surface color) do not apply.

@crussader: How about this:

 

[crussader]

I don't think retro green gets enough love

I agree. I am doing my part though by making it the base for the .25 chip in the associated micro cash set.

Actually, I tried that combination with just about every base color except light green. I'll take a look.

 

[crussader]

I've been playing with this since I got home and have at least come to one conclusion. I think I'm going to stick with the 414418 spot. It picks up the 1/4 spots from the 100,500, and 1000. And the crossing pattern of the 1/8 spots plays off the crossing pattern of the 100,1000,and 5000.

 

[crussader]

I've tried almost all of the colors as a base to see if I find something, but not many options work. These seem like the best prospects...

 

[crussader]

While we're at it. Any preferences on the inlays?

 

[allforcharity]

Either top row or bottom row. Leaning toward top row.
