I want to buy set for cash games with 1/1 blinds. Occasionally game would run 2.5/2.5 blinds but it would be rare so the focus is mostly building around 1/1.

I would like to keep it simple and just have 3 denominations.
1/10/100 style is used in some casinos (10/10 playing with 10/100/1000) but I feel like 1/10/50 denominations would be better?

The only problem is when you need to bet 9 you would have to use 9 chips instead of 5 chips if you had 5's and 1's but I dont see this as a problem when you have enough of the 1's on the table.

But 50 as the big chip instead of 100 would be more useful and help in a situation when you would need to bet like 99 so you dont need to use 9x1+9x10 for 18chips for single bet.

So what do you think of this 1/10/50 setup? The 1 chip would be just the "BB" always so if we want to play 2.5/2.5 the same set works and denominations would be 2.5/10/50 and we would have plaques for 100's.

So 1/1 set with 3 denominations I feel like 1/10/50 would be best and I am thinking about buying a set like that. What are your opinions?

And what u think about my design? Bonus with just 3 denominations is that its so simple that you dont even need inlays, even tho I might get them anyways.

I agree with 1/5/25.

I honestly think your design is pretty plain and boring.

Also for your big chip. If you’re using the same edge spot you can use 814+ instead of 8D14 to get better results.

I like simple chips and dont want to make 1's and 10's too complex because of price. I just want great colors and simple edge progression.

I feel like 1/10/50 is a lot easier to think about, only that I will need a lot more 1's than normally but its fine.

Do u guys think 300/200/100 distribution is good enough for 1/1 9max game with 1/10/50 chips.

There is 33 1's per player which should be enough even tho there might be preflop raises of 9 chips. And also if someone bets 9 then players behind can just throw one 10 chip to call and get single 1 back easily.

Bank would be over 7k which is enough for sure for the 1/1 game we play.
 
Are you currently using this progression for your games? I think going with the standard 1/5/25/100 makes sense but if your group is already use to 1/10/50 then it makes sense why you would go with a non-standard progression.

Then you should do it, and don't bother asking our opinion of it. You're not going to get much objective support for 1/10/50 progression from us, because the vast majority of us don't build our sets that way and don't play that way.

I wouldn't approach a full table of that breakdown without 4 racks of $1s. You are literally forcing $1s to become the workhorse chip because you have no $5. At least 2 racks of $10, and I can hear more members screaming for 3 or more.

I like this design. With a good label it will look simply stunning. Do you have any CPC samples?
Pay attention that this form requires good graphics.
