I currently have 840 Soprano chips broken down in the following colors:
400 Black
250 Yellow
190 Red
10 Green
This setup works for a cash game, but I would like to also use it for a NL Holdem tourney with about 16 people with at least 2 rebuys and 1 add on. Any suggestions on what chip breakdown, starting stacks and blind structure would be greatly appreciated!
Use
Red = T25
Black = T100
Yellow = T500
Green = T1000
If you do a T2500 with starting stacks of 12xT25 and 22xT100 for 16 players: (you will be 2 red chips short 12x16=192) You will have exactly enough Black chips to give out 22 to start (22x16=352 + 3x16=48 to color up the T25s = 400)
Use 5xT500 for each rebuy and add on (potential 3 total per player or 48x5=240 chips)
Start blinds
25/50
50/100
75/150
100/200
150/300 - color up T25
200/400
300/600
400/800
500/1000
600/1200
800/1600
1000/2000
1500/3000 up by 500s
You'll need to find 2 more red chips if you have 16 players and your greens are not used, finally, you'll have 10 extra yellows.
