Tell me if this breakdown looks good to be able to spread games from 1/2 to 5/10.

Imperial Blue ($.50) - 50 chips (for the SB in the 1/2 games)
White (#1)- 250 chips
Red ($5) - 200 chips
Green ($25) - 75 chips
Black ($100) - 25 chips

Now assuming a 25BB min buy in (I will allow less but for this is good to assume they are buying in for the min) with 10 players.
Starting chips:

1/2
$.50 x 4
$1 x 23
$5 x 5

2/4
$1 x 25
$5 x 15

3/6
$1 x 25
$5 x 20
$25 x 1

5/10
$1 x 10 (for the SB)
$5 x 18
$25 x 6

Granted I haven't used the black chips yet, them and the green chips will be for change for people to rebuy back in. Many people said that 600 chips isn't enough to cover this wide range of games but do you guys think this is a good set to cover all the games? Any suggestions to modify the current chips would be appreciated.

Looks good to me. If you think that people will frequently buy in for less than 25BB maybe you could cut down on those blacks.
1/2 25BB=50x10=500
5/10 25BB=250x10=2500

Since the greens/blacks are both more for making up the balance of a persons stack and the whites/reds are the primary chips in play I think you'd be better off with more white/red. I also don't see why everyone would need 5x0.50 for 1/2. Maybe 40 blue, 250 white, 250 red, 40 green, 20 black. Requires more cashing around the table maybe for 0.50, but I think having extra reds for 3/6 & 5/10 would help.

Looks sane. I would do:

blue - 60
White - 240
Red - 200
Green - 80
Black - 20

Just so they fit into chipracks neatly. If you're planning on using the chip boxes with covers instead, stick with the multiples of 25. Another thing you might consider... since the non-spotted chips are a one-run type of deal you could go ahead and just get 100 of them, stealing from your others somewhere... you'll be able to have another run of the edgespots made in the future if desired.

Yes, looks good. We play the same limits but no 1/2 and I have a 300 set and it is working fine. Your chip count will work even better.

I have 50 of the $.50 because of rebuys , $.50 is the small blind for 1/2 so you need them but 40 might be enough. I dont think 40 green would work considering for the 5/10 you need 6 greens to buy in for just 25BB, and many people will proboly buy in for more than just 25BB. I proboly could scratch the blacks almost alltogether but the blacks for the asm group buy look too cool lol

I do agree extra reds would be good, but for the $10 betting rounds the $25 chips would suffice if you needed to call or raise to a 3 bet.

How about doing 40 blue and 20 black and then using the extra 15 for the red, so I would then have 215 red, Might be a little better?

If you're playing a 5/10 NL, you'll need at least 160 greens for 10 players.

[gators52]

I doubt that, 160 greens means 16per player which is $400 in green chips alone, not counting the red and white chips they are getting which is over $100.

your going to need a good amount of red and whites then if ur buyin is $1000

[gators52]

Your implying the min buy-in is 100BB, who ever said that?

[TomHimself]

im implying the max buyin is 100BB
