I have some samples of these chips and if I didn't have so many suited 11.5 metal slug chips - these are what I would buy for my tournamants - good choice!
The colors they have there are "classic" casino tournament colors - but it will vary - and when it comes down to it do what you like and what works for you.
White = 1
Red = 5
Blue = 1 or 10 or 50
Green = 25
Black = 100
Purple = 500
Yellow = 1000
Orange and Grey = 5000 or 25000
Your starting chips and blinds will determine how many of each you need.
For 500 chips and looking at your max of 15 people and 5000 in starting chips starting blinds at 25/25 or 25/50
8 green, 18 black, 6 purple = 5000
total chips needed is 120 green, 270 black, 90 purple = 480
add 20 yellow in there to color up the green when the 25 chip isn't needed.
If you want to start blinds at 5/10 add a red chip.
for 1000 chips something like:
300 green (25) / 400 black (100) / 200 purple (500) / 100 yellow (1000) in 4 colors you like should work.
They can also be used for $.25 / $1 / $5 / $10 in ring games.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Matt
