| Re: 5-25-100-500 setup vs 25-100-500-1000
I don't know about versatility, but I think 25-100-500-1000 is downright easier to work with than the 5 system. To me, a T5,000 or T10,000 is by far the friendliest. I have seen countless players, regulars and noobs alike, who have tried to raise to 60 with the blinds at 10/20, and to see them painfully try to count out two 25's and two 5's, or one 25 and 7 5's (somebody did it) is awful. When you play with the upper values it makes the bets so much easier to count out. Not to mention totalling stacks for all-ins becomes much easier- twenty 25's = 500, twenty 100's = 2000, twenty 500's = 10000, twenty 1000's = 20000. |
