Hey guys - I've shopped around here for years and thank you all for what you've shared. All of my poker questions have always been answered but I am a new user because my home game has started up again and I want to make it as good as possible for my group.
We play a VERY simple $25 .25/.25 cash game with not a ton of rebuys and I have read (I think) every single starting stack and chip breakout post on here but could not find a bit more reasoning.
I personally like (due to mild OCD) to have .25 x 16, $1 x 16 and $5 x 1. I just like the balance of 16 chips for .25 and $1 and I also think it brings a good amount of each chip into play. I very rarely see anyone recommend this and usually see .25 x 8 or 12 max for these stakes.
My games run well, but are my games missing something, am I missing out on anything by having this amount of chips on my table? I do have enough chips to run this stack for 10 players with some extra $1 and $5 but we normally don't have 10 players, I just made the set to accommodate that amount.
Perhaps I just am looking for validation that this isn't crazy, but I'm also always open to suggestions from anyone including my own players on recommendations that I might not have considered.
Thanks!
