Sitting Out
Hey everyone, I'm new to this forum but have been playing poker with the cheap Amazon chips for years. I've been looking heavily at a custom set but during my research I have a question. I have a 10 person table and mostly play cash games (BB between $0.20 and $1). I have also hosted a couple tournaments. I always use the same chip value no matter what game I'm playing but I see many people use significantly higher denominations for tournaments. Why is this? Do people just want to sound more important saying "Raise to $200,000"? I just don't get it.
My tournaments are $100 buyins and each player starts off with $100 in chips. I have been to other tournaments where $100 buyin gives you 30,000 chips.
Can anyone explain this to me?
