Micro cash games with 10x size chips (0.10 = 1.00, etc)

[Rockstar7]

I decided for my set (just a few posts below yours on this forum) to go with nickels, dimes, and quarters, along with $1s on the table.

Yeah it's a lot of chips...and if you ask, "Why nickels?" it's so it's less tempting for people to bet 75 cents in a .10/.20 game when they can toss in a nickel and make it 80 or whatever. Also my set can be used for .05/.10 games as well.

also - more chips = more happy!

Like someone else mentioned, I also use my china clay Pharaohs tourney set for our cash games. Initially I had the $25, $100, $500 and $1000 chips. I just had to add the $5 chips to the set because we play 10c/25c NLH.
Since our group is not compromised of math geniuses I just tell the guys $5=5c, $25=25c, $100=$1, etc. Real simple and does the job. The only problem...I picked up some $1 casino Paulsons a while back and they're just sitting there, all alone...hoping some quarters will show up.
