I have never had the need to go to $25 chips at this level. I also use a $.50 chip (purple T500 chip from my tourney set) which helps me out if the quarter chips get a little low.

I would recommend dropping the $25 chip in favor or more quarter chips. I know its always nice to have extra chips denoms available, but $25 is way out of range for a .25/.50 game. If you start playing some 1/2 no limit, then you would actually need more $25 chips.

So either none at all, or a lot more on the $25 chip.

Good thoughts. Yeah, part of the reason I threw the 25's in there was basically because I think the green/yellow chip just looks sweet.
I could back that down to sample size like I'm getting in some of the other random chips just to have. Now I'm thinking maybe get 160 each of the quarters and 1's. That way for a 10 man game, everyone could get 16 of each for the buy-in. Rebuys would be all reds with enough for 20. If I ever do need the 25's, I'll have some from my samples.

Thanks!
