Doing a $10 but-in home game tonight. How should I set up the blinds and whatnot? (4 Viewers)

Need help on how to set up the blinds and the chip distribution for my $10 buy-in home game tonight. Thanks!

We don't even know how many players you have and what chip denoms and quantities, dude.

For a one table cash game, .05/.10 blinds with these denominations:

.05 - 1 rack distributed to players - first 5 get a barrel each and make change for others

.25 - workhorse chip #1, 1 barrel per player minimum (I prefer 2 barrels/player)

$1 - top each player up to $10 with these, your second workhorse, and use them for rebuys if you have lots, if not use $5s for rebuys

Sorry bout that - 4 players and two sets of standard Amazon chips - red, blue, green, white and black. Nothing fancy.

Both responses here are right, 5c/10c with 5c/25c/$1 chips makes the most sense for a $10 BI game (unless you want to play a tournament), but without knowing what chips you have and how many people you expect we can't give you the right answer. Do you expect people to re-buy much also?

Cash game?

10 5c
14 25c
6 $1

Re-buys all $1 chips and then move up to $5 if the stacks gets deep.
