How many of each denomination?

I am going to be buying 500 chips soon. How many of each colour is it best to get??

I will be playing tournaments with blinds starting at 10/20 mainly.

Should I get 5s 25s and 100s only or is it worth getting another value as well?

Another place you can figure your denominations is from http://www.homepokertourney.com/poke...calculator.htm This is one of my favorite resources for hometournements.

Re: How many of each denomination?

It's always cool when the $500 chips start showing up, especially when they sre in my stack. It really depends how many starting players you will have, eg if you have 8 players you really don't need $500's. If you have 32 players it is a different story.

Re: How many of each denomination?

I like to use $100, $500, $1000----100 or more of each

Makes it alot easier to count when you need to match that person who goes all in, plus you dont have to worry about getting your stack of 5 dollar chips knocked over if you already have then pre sorted into $100 stacks.

If your playing tourney play, who needs to worry about small denominations, they already bought into the game. I just think its easier, now for cash games, I use $1's and $5's and trust me, theres not alot of chips flaoting around when we play like that.
