I played 6/12 with $2 chips on the PPM cruise last year (run by CardPlayer cruises) and I am pretty sure the blinds were $2 and $6.

There were some blue $1 chips around the table though as I recall (if the rake didn't make it to the max $4 usually....and for tips) so it COULD have been 3/6 blinds...but I don't think so.


There's not necessarily a STANDARD way to do it.
You can do the blinds in such a way that you prefer for your game.

For example, 3/6 typically has blinds of 1 and 3. But I've played on online sites where it's 1.50 and 3.
And I've played live where they only have a single $3 big-blind.


If a B&M wants to do 6/12 with $2 chips it's really up to them whether they want to do blinds of 2 and 6 or if they want 3 and 6.
I can't see the change being much of an issue for 3 and 6 as another poster observed.
You just put a couple $2 chips out there....and the dealer quickly flips a $1 chip back at you. Shouldn't be that big a deal.


FWIW - I really liked the 6/12 game with $2 chips.

I played 8/16 at Bellagio and Wynn.
Bellagio is all red and blue 5 and 1 chips and it was really annoying.
A raise to $16 could look like a bet of $8 because both had 4 chips (3 red and 1 blue vs. 1 red and 3 blue).
At the Wynn with the brown $2 chips the game seemed to go much smoother. I liked it with $2 chips significantly better.
