I am looking for advice. I went a little buy happy with THC solids. I only need a few more chips to make a 50 player set. The likelihood I have a game over 1 table is very low right now, but I've always thought dealing was kind of fun and I'm wondering if there's any point in keeping the set on the off chance I could get into organizing tournaments for people or something. (Did I mention I have a 3 table T-mold blank set too? )
I wasn't sure about the colors I wanted to use, but having the chips in front of me has helped me come to a decision. There may have been other influences too
Here's the breakdown I am looking at (chips I need in brackets):
400 (130) x T25
400 (260) x T100
200 x T500
421 x T1,000
251 x T5,000
120 x T25,000
20 x T100,000
It kind of just worked out like this. My idea is 50 T10k-30k starting stacks:
8 x T25
8 x T100
4 x T500
7 x T1,000
0-4 x T5,000
If I went through with the big set, I'm thinking of doing some labels that someone else would also be interested in if I no longer wanted the chips.
The other thing is, a few chips are a bit thicker than the rest, some have inlays, and a few have flea bites. If I downsized to a 1-table set or so I could have consistent heights, keep hot-stamps only (maybe not the day greens), and get @Gear to mill a different shaped inlay for each denom (provided he can do enough different ones!)
I also have 197 hot pink chips that I can only really see being used as T5s since I'd prefer not to have them on the table at the same time as the blaze orange. I much prefer the lowest denom to be T25 though. Mayyyybe I could use T5s in a single table tourney but I'm not seeing the appeal. Can anyone think of a good use for them? Right now I'm pretty exclusive to Hold'em.
Thoughts?
