Thanks. I've read most of the Home Poker Tourny site - great stuff - but I didn't see anything there about the mechanics of getting new chips into play.

I don't see how racing the smallest chips will introduce a new biggest size chip. Aren't you always racing from smallest to next-smallest ($1 to $5 or $25 to $100)?

If you start with 1s, 5s, 25s, & 100s do you just race off until everyone has 100s and then race up to 500s or 1000s later? Clearly in a huge (WSOP) tourney this wouldn't work and isn't what's done.
