Some guys I know play poker in a local bar every Thursday, me included once in a while. It's a cash game buy in £5.00 roughly $10.00 to you American friends. Anyway the chip values are:
Red: 100
Black: 200
White: 1000
For £5.00/$10.00 you get 2000 in chips

So as you can imagine, you hardly get a "stack" to start with. I don't think it's right...Do any of you???
Plus the chip values are way off too,
