| First Ring Game, setup? Yes I read the link to the article that Ten posted earlier, but I still have some questions. Our group, usually 5-7 of us have been playing a tourny style game every week. But it's getting ... well. ... it seems to be taking the fun out of the game somehow. We want to start playing a ring game, so that people can get up and join back in whenever they please instead of waiting for upto 1.5 hours for the game to finish. We have a 650 piece set with this color/denom scheme(meaning it's printed on the chips):
$1= white = 250 total
$5= red = 200 total
$25=green = 100 total
$50=blue = 50 total
$100=black = 50 total
Yeh, odd configuration, but I didn't know any better when I bought it.
I was figuring a $5 or $10 buyin, get so much(opinions needed here) in chips, and when you cash out, you get your money back based on your chip stack and the $5 buyin. Try again, $5 buyin = $20 in chips. You have $30 in chips when you cash out you get ... $7.50 back(rough figuring). Is this viable, or should be keep the buyin and the chip amount the same, $5 buyin, $5 in chips. In this format, I think the blinds should be $0.05/$0.10, correct?
With that chip configuration, how would you structure the chips for a 5-7 person table?
Thanks for any help you will most surely provide.
