Tourney Would you buy a base T10 tourney set? (Yes, you read that right) (1 Viewer)

Base T10 tourney set? What, am I nuts? Hear me out...This should really not play much different than a base T5 tournament set.

Starting stack = T4000 as 10/12/11/3/1
Level 0 - 10/10
Level 1 - 10/20
Level 2 - 10/30
Level 3 - 20/40
Level 4 - 30/60
- color up T10s with T1000 -
Level 5 - 50/100
Level 6 - 75/150
- continues as base T25 blinds -

So, why would I do this? Because I have a cool set of chips with a weird breakdown. I have 2 options I am looking at, see details below. What makes more sense to you? Poll up top.

Option 1:
Base T10 set with 500 chips. 90% genuine Chipcos...only two to three barrels of one denom would be replicas. Per chip price at or below Tina pricing.

Option 2:
Base T25 set with 500 chips. 60% genuine Chipcos. The other 40% would be replicas spanning 3 denoms. Affordable, but above Tina pricing.

This is comforting to see. T50 instead of T25. 10/8/10/5/x?

Yes, but basically it had ended up being played as micro cash (denoms as cents)

I did consider it, but after sleeping on it, decided it would be too weird for players. Although it mathematically works.

Why is this weird? I'm considering something like this (T1 Base) - I figured as long as the ratios of BB to starting stacks were consistent with large base starts, then it would be fine.

Why is this weird?

Because a T10-base set would use chip denominations that are uncommon and unfamiliar to players (10, 40/50, 200/250).
