Default Re: Need help buying chips - how many?

new guys spend the entire tourney peering at the chart on the wall going "how much are the blues again" or at the bet on the table going, "how much is that?"

My first idea was to just have blue (better would be silver) for quarters, and green for dollars, and that's it, no more denominaitons. I thought this would be the most trivial mnenomic possible. However, it might be that you can't make a very good structure with this, or that it would get too unwieldly after about 5 levels. I guess you could add a gold chip on the high-end to alleviate that problem, but then you lose some of the power of the mnenomic.
