Looking for a good set of tournament chips. I've looked at CPC and like some of the options I have on there. Leaning toward the Atlantic HS or the Rounders set. I'd like to weigh in some more options but Im just too new to this world and I feel like I'm not looking in the right place... Any help would be appreciated!

Budget is around 2k. Looking for a non-ceramic chip with denoms at 25, 100, 500, 1000, and 5000. Maybe even some 10k.

Thanks!
 
Hello,
For a single table (10 players), you can use a breakdown like this :
25 x 120
100 x 120
500 x 70
1000 x 120 (incl. chips to color-up the 25 and 100)
5000 x 20 (incl. chips to color-up the 5000)
--> 450 chips
You can add 10 of each as spares to get 500 chips.

You can have starting stacks of 20,000 for freezeout (12/12/7/10/1) or 10,000 (12/12/7/5) with one rebuy (5 x 1000 + 1 x 5000) on starting.
You can play with starting blinds 25-50 or 25-25 for deeper starting stacks.

With your budget it means $4 / chip, which provides you with many options, including full custom from CPC !

+1 for going full CPC custom
 
How many Tables tourney are OP going to get? Since OP mention 25 denom to 5/10k denom

2k budget for STT is great $4-$5 per chip, you have multi premium options to choose from

2k budget say for 3 Table tourney will drop the budget by a lot. At $2 per chip it still definitely good enough to get those Stock CPC set

2k budget say for a Huge tourney event set(10 table) will vastly change the budget to 60c per chip

Great question. We generally only have one table going every week. Once a month, maybe twice, we'll have 2 tables.

We are also the type of players that like to have lots of chips in front of us. Whenever possible we do a 16/16/12/12/0 and chip up from there with multiple rebuys. When we have more people we just adjust the starting stack to a 12/12/5/6/2. So say a usual poker night we'll have 10 players with 4-6 rebuys thru out the night.

I'd like to get a 1k chip set, but would be good with a 500 set for now and can always buy more later.

Well, it looks like you've answered your own question here. At 16/16/12/12, you need 540 chips for stacks before chip up and rebuy, so probably 600 set here.

At 12/12/5/6/2 for 2 tables, that's 740 chips for stacks before chip up and rebuy, so probably at least 800 here.

It's possible to cut down both by 200 chips, but only if you can tolerate smaller stacks.
