Realistically, in a casino or cardroom setting you would only need one denomination of chips for each of the games. 25¢ chips for the .50/$1 and $1/2 games, and $1 chips in the $2/4 game. There's no need for a $5 chip in any of the games. In a home setting, you may want to include $1 chips in the .50/1 and 1/2 games just to reduce the amount of chips necessary, however a $5 chip wouldn't be in play at all other than for change-making purposes. If the bulk of the games are going to be in the .50/1 and 1/2 range, I'd suggest a lot of .25 chips (400?) and the remainder in $1 chips. Perhaps go to 800 chips with an equal amount of .25 and $1 chips.
Insofar as breakdowns, it would depend on the buy-in. For a $20 buyin on the .50/1 game, maybe 20-.25 and 15-$1, and for the 1/2 maybe a $30 buy-in with 20-.25 and 25-$1 for the 1/2 game. Having 400 $1 chips would enable you to go for up to a $50 buy-in for the 2/4 game with 8 players, using all of the $1 chips, and the players would have to buy chips from each other for rebuys.

3) Any $5 chips?
For a $1/$2 limit game:
1) How many 25¢ chips per player?
2) How many $1 chips per player?
3) How many $5 chips per player?
For a $2/$4 limit game:
1) How many 25¢ chips per player?
2) How many $1 chips per player?
3) How many $5 chips per player?
I would like to accomodate up to 16 people in the 50¢/$1 & the $1/$2 games and up to 8 people in the $2/$4 games. Would this be achievable with say a 750 chipcount? |
