Negreanu challenges' chip values?

Lucy Alexis Liu · #1 07-19-2005, 11:29 AM

While riding a bike (A bike, implying it's not mine - not saying I stole it), I wondered what chipvalues are used in The $500,000 challenges between Darth Negreanu and <RANDOM PRO>. Since they start off with $500.000 each, the blinds being $4.000/$8.000, do they just have 500 x $1000 value chips? I mean... ? Since there is to mu knowledge no $4.000 chip.

Probably a stupid question, but hey...

I'd assume they use 5K and 1K chips.

Ghazban beat me to it. I'd be almost certain that they use $1K and $5K chips.

Ok seems resonable. I care about such stupid details =)

Howard Treesong · #5 07-19-2005, 12:30 PM

They use $1K and $5K chips for the betting that I saw, but each of them had a stack of the large $25k chips as well.

Well I agree on the "stupid" part anyway.

I think the $1 chips are for tipping. Hope that helps. although I played a tournament at the O'rleans once with Daniel and he tipped the cocktail watresses with $100's so i'm not sure.

For the $500k matches they usually use yellows(1k), whites(5k), and browns(25k).
I've seen them use only yellows for some of the smaller matches though($200k)

Daniel keeps another rack on the side with red, green, and blacks for tipping during the match.
