Hello,

I'm trying to figure out the best breakdown for these parameters. The set would contain T5, T25, T100 and T500 and it should be possible to play both T1000 tournaments and $10 cashgames.

First the tournament part. Players would start with 15/17/5, which makes 150/200/100 chips total including color-ups. Now for the rebuys I would use 1 x T500 and 5 x T100 as well as 5 x T100 addons for each player. That totals in 150/200/200/10 chips. One alternative would be to use 2 x T500 rebuy and 1 x T500 addon which would save 100 T100s, but I'm not sure if that is what I want. If I want to be able to use both configurations, I would end up with 150/200/200/30.

Cash games would be played with cent chipvalues ($10 buy-in, 0.05/.10 blinds). I'm not sure if I have to make any adjustments for the cash games, the last breakdown of 150/200/200/30 seems to be pretty usable.

Do you have any comments or suggestions? I'm especially unsure with the rebuy/addon breakdown, whether to use T100 or T500.

I guess I'll rather stick to a 150/200/150/30/20 (550 total chips) breakdown. That still allows all setups above, the rebuys and addons just have some different breakdowns but I'd save a few chips and would be able to use a T1000.

You can easily do a T1000 and a cash game with under 500 chips.

Make starting stacks for both 20 / 5s, 12 / 25s, & 6 / 100s

Gives plenty of chips and there's plenty left.

Your set would have 200 $5s, 150 $25s, 100 $100s, and 50 $500s

Rebuys would be two $500 chips.
