Would this work as a small heads-up cash set? (1 Viewer)

It's just an odd amount. Cash games don't need starting stacks, but if you are making them just to see chip qty, then $197 is an odd amount to start with (go 15/12/5 for an even $200)

This....

sgtm, tyvm

 

[tulkas]

this is the current state of affairs. I have 5 more $25s that will replace 5 $100s.

does this work now?

 

[tulkas]

76 $1s
84 $5s
34 $25s
6 $100s

what would you change to make this a nice heads up cash set?

 

[tulkas]

I should just buy 6 more $25s and 16 more $5s shouldn't I?

That'd give me:

60 $1s
100 $5s
40 $25s

Almost $800 per person ....that should be plenty for a heads up

 

[tulkas]

so this might actually be a cash set that could support a table of 6, no? $200 buy in with $360 extra...

Not at all IMO.

I consider 400 to be too small and even 500 chips for a 6 max table would be slightly less than ideal for our group

$360 is less than 2 extra rebuys.

@Cdsmitck and I play heads up 2-3 times a week. We almost always play short stacked 1/2. 60bb is the usual. Starting stacks are super simple, barrel of 1’s and a barrel of 5’s.

Maybe I can convince him to play 200bb deep one day

Ok so this is good because I am beginning to understand how to do this math...

So 5 players? $200 per player with $560 left for 2 rebuys
Or 4 players? $200 per player with $760 left for 3 rebuys
Or 3 players? $200 per player with $960 left for 4 rebuys

Add back some $100 chips to use for rebuys and you should be good to go!

Not if I were ever to stand a winning chance. Gotta hit the boy quick, and sure as shit - hard.
