Wanted Harrahs T1000 Chips (1 Viewer)

[AfterTheFact]

Betting on a Cause and a Cure Tournament Chips. Looking for two racks of the T1000 chips. Different year is fine as long as it’s not the same color as my other chips. I can trade T25 or T5000.

Mini gear label to change 5,000 to 1,000? Sweet chips I am always jealous of these eBay deals that pop up from time to time.

Have you seen any T1000 in the wild? Odd that they are missing.

Nope, also posted on the CB and got no response.

It looks like different years had different color chips. The 5000 chip listed in the chip guide is green..

Seems odd that there wouldn’t be one..

Maybe they realized that a T1000 really isn't needed if you have enough T500's in play. Seems odd, but that would explain it.

I rarely host tournaments (like once a year) so I have no idea. What would you recommend for a tourney breakdown with these say 16 players?

12/12/5/6/4

200/200/80/120/80(100)

My preferred 16 player, 2 table breakdown

Edit: also, if you’re looking to sell any extras...

@RichMahogany the set you got didn't have any 1000s either. Maybe they didn't make them and this is an impossible task? Has anyone seen any T1000?

Can’t find any info about them. The chip guide has the same chips that we both have under Harrah's Generic out of Nevada but a different T5000 is listed. I’ve also found one or two other chips from different years of the tournament and listed under a different location, but they have different color schemes, i.e, an orange T25, the aforementioned green T5000, etc.

Luckily I found a T1000 that works for my set before I bought mine. I have another chip in mind to use as a T1000 but I don’t think they’re available in the quantity I want/need.

With your 300/200/200/0/200 set, I'd go with the following deep stack event:

16 players, T32000 starting stacks (320BB with 50/100 opening blinds):

16 x T25
11 x T100
11 x T500
5 x T5000
-----------
43 chips

Can also go with 12/12/11/5 stacks (40 chips) -- pretty much a wash either way. The above stacks get more of the chips into play and creates bigger stacks, if that makes any difference. The latter has starting stacks that work out to an easy-to-store two barrels each. With the latter, only two racks of T25s are needed.

A blind structure with relatively-relaxed increases (20%-50%, 37% average) will run between 5 hours (with 15-minute levels) and 6.5 hours (with 20-minute levels) including breaks. Uses 6x T5000 chips to color-up the T25s and T100s, with enough extra T500/T5000 chips for up to six re-buys if desired.
