I'm getting tired of our regular T20 tournaments.....

8x.25
10x.50
8x1.00
1x5.00

i'm in the process of ordering my custom ceramics from ABC.Can any of you guys help me out with a breakdown for a T1500 (I'm kinda partial to PS),T2000 or anything that would keep me under 600 chips for my tourney set.I usually host 20 people with one rebuy.If I follow the PS blind structure I would have to incorporate the $5 chip which i am ordering 200 of.I have mock ups of $25,$100,$500 and $1000

any help would be much appreciated!

no sir, unless you plan no colorups.

the problem is that you want 1/3 of your set to be 5s. 200*t5 = t1000. that's a third of your chips, but only 1/35th of your T-value. i figured out a way to do 650...but not 600.

PS blind structure starts at 5/10?

EDIT: I didn't see the re-buy part in your OP. So the following is moot unless you use the 40 chips to cover the re-buy amounts. i.e. 20 x $1000 and 20 x $500 and give one each to the re-buys. You may be making change alot.

I run my leagues with a T1500 structure with a 20 player max.

Blinds start at $5/$10, 20 min rounds. Games last 3-4 hours depending on # of players.
My chip stacks start as follows:
$5 x 10
$25 x 10
$100 x 7
$500 x 1
=T1500

This may not be ideal (I have 900+ sets that cover color-ups a bit easier) but would probably work...

For 20 player max this is 560 chips. Leaving you with 40 chips to use as color ups. To color up the $5 you need $1000 so add 10 $100's leaving 30 chips. To color up the $25 you need $5000. 10, $500 chips. 580 chips total. Fill in with say $25's and you can color up half of the $5's as needed earlier in the game.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Well,
If you went with starting stacks of:
10 x 5
6 x 25
8 x 100
1 x 500
---------------------
25 chips/player, T1500

You'd need (for starting stacks)
200 x 5
120 x 25
160 x 100
20 x 500
------------------------------
500 chips so far.

60 more 500's would get you 20 rebuys
10 more 100's would colorup the 5's
30 more 100's would colorup the 25's
----------------------------------------------------
100 chips for colorups and rebuys


============================
600 chips total.

oops....I probably should of added that the 200 $5's don't factor into the 600

With initial blinds of 10/20, and the little blind increasing by increments of ten (if it does) - would it make any sense to use unconventional denominations like 10's and 50's on the low end, instead of 5's and 25's?

The little blind doesn't increase by 10, the second level is 15/30.
