Re: Need help buying chips - how many?
[ QUOTE ]
If they do not have denominations on them, i'd not use more than 3 at a time (or 4 very sparingly). 4 chip colors can work, but 5 and/or 6 is way too many to have in play at one time for a tournament (unless they have denominations on them.
5, 25, 100 is a good mix (4th color at 500 wouldn't be terrible but anything more than that probably isn't necessary)

no denomitations, FYI.
yeah, I think when I order the new ones it will be 4 colors. We played last night with 3 colors and things colored up nicely. They didn't like the $5 then $25 because it was such a large jump but I'm not going to do $10,$20,$50, $100...guess they will have to learn to like it. Maybe I could work out $25,$50,$100,$500.....ugh!
The speed of the limits needs to be worked out (or more starting chips) but all in all this was one of our better tourneys. (I also expanded the table so we had more room - very nice)
