It appears to me that if I wanna run a T10,000, single table tourney limited to 9 players with one rebuy, I should probably go with a set of chips that includes a t25. I've see some other threads in here where T10,000 stacks have the 1st level of blinds starting at 25/50 or 50/100 -- I've even seen 25/25 as the first level. My initial thoughts were to get a set of 500 chips broken down like this:
200 x 100 (black)
150 x 500 (purple)
100 x 1000 (yellow)
50 x 5000 (grey)
With the chips above I could set the first blind level to 100/100 with stacks at T10,000 (15 x 100 / 13 x 500 / 2 x 1000). Now we're 100BB deep. The blinds would look like THIS.
Now I'm thinking about getting a tourney set with a t25 chip because it's more flexible. I can remove the t25 chip after the 75/150 level then color up the t100 chip after the 900/1800 level. All this according to the chip calculator on this site.
200 x 25 (green)
150 x 100 (black)
100 x 500 (purple)
50 x 1000 (yellow)
Blind Structure:
25/50
50/100
75/150
Break 1: Remove t25 chips
100/200
200/400
300/600
Break 2
400/800
500/1000
600/1200
800/1600
900/1800
Remove t100 chips
1000/2000
1500/3000
Which have you been successful with? Both, or is one better than the other? Seems like have a t25 chip is a lot more flexible.
