Exactly right.

It's a crying shame that the untextured plain mold is unavailable now. It would be oh so sweet to be able to get classic crest-and-seal chips using modern design concepts.
The textured plain mold is a good substitute, but it's just not quite the same.

Anyone running a 25c/50c or 50c/$1 cash game should give serious consideration to using $25 and $100 Rounders chips and just knocking two decimal places off.
I really want a tournament set, but we play mostly cash now so I've been considering this. I have to think about if my OCD will be ok with it.
However when I take a set to my annual guys' "fishing" trip, we've been playing tourneys but someone always wants to break out a cash game. I could just bring one set and be prepared to play either one.
I'm not worried about someone taking chips from tourney to play cash. We're low stakes and all close friends. I would still make sure all chips were accounted for before playing cash.
So $10 and $50 chips....hmmm..probably just fine.
I'd probably go with 560 chips for up to T20000 / cash bank $3730.
| $ 25 | 120 |
| $ 100 | 200 |
| $ 500 | 100 |
| $ 1,000 | 100 |
| $ 5,000 | 40 |
Yup. CPC would definitely get more of my $$$$ with bear claws.... (and moar cullerz)

@Irish What was your original breakdown to recreate that final heads up game?I originally built my Rounders set to be able to re-create the final heads up match. Then expanded from there
View attachment 872218
Been a while since I watched the movie, but did the Chesterfield chips get a lot of screen time?
There it is.
That depends on what you consider the "final" game
I initially built the set to match the chip stacks at the start of the night, which were $10k each (4 barrels of $25s and $100s, each), plus Teddy's 20k rebuy once he busts the first match (2 barrels of $500s). I started with that for the head's up set, then bumped up the $25s to an even 2 racks and added the higher denoms to make it a playable single table T10k tourney set:
200 - $25s
160 - $100s
60 - $500s
60 - $1,000s
20 - $5,000s
(a few years later I added on to make this playable for 2 tables)
However, based on Mike's summary at the end, Teddy must add another $20k at some point because Mike ends up winning with just north of $60k at the end of the movie. In that final hand, they each must have ~30k. Teddy's chips are easy to see, he has ~$29k:
KGB:
40 - $25
80 - $100
40 - $500
Mike's stack is much tougher to see, and honestly I don't think they have enough chips on the table (Mike has to have $30k+ to cover KGB). It looks like he only has 1 barrel of $500s, so he'd need close to 2 racks of 100s to make up the rest and it just doesn't look like it's there. Unless of course there's another partial stack of 500s hidden in the back that's not visible (WTF big chips out front guys!!!!).
TLDR, if you want to emulate the full final game (60k total), I'd recommend:
160 - $25s
160 - $100s
80 - $500s
A quaint little 400 chip head's up set... that's not useful for much else
I think all you need is three stacks of high society and you should be good to go. Both start with a couple of racks. Blinds 25 and 50...

Most of the time the chips were onscreen, so was Petra.
I like chips too, but c’mon….

That’s a nice looking set too. That may be set number 2 some day!

I did the same counting recently and I agree with your assessment of what's on the table at the end of the game.
FWIW, here's what I think is on the table in the first game, the one where Mike loses his bankroll. Just looking at what KGB and Mike have and ignoring the other players who aren't in the hand: At the start of the hand, Mike has very nearly exactly $50,000: 80x $500 and 100x $100. KGB has around $58,500: 100x $500 and 80x $100 and 20x $25. KGB might have another 20x $100, it's hard to tell. Combined, that's:
20 - $25s
180 - $100s
180 - $500s
Fewer chips than at the end of the movie (not by much though), but almost twice as much money.

To be fair, we're just as good at spending our own...Good to know! And yes, your breakdown above would definitely do the trick. But, having gone from a 500 order originally up to 1000 now, the price tag is high enough...not sure I'm ready to take it even higher with another 200 chips...haha!
But boy...you guys sure are good at spending other people's money!

I’ve thought about this a lot since that would give much more use to the chips you see onscreen. But I’m not sure my OCD will allow it!
My samples are a day late so I guess I have another 24 hours to ponder (knowing I’ll be submitting an order shortly after I get them ).
