Okay, I think I finally get what's going on.
@Hoakypoaky has a space to fill with 600 chips. 600 chips is way overkill for a single table tourney set, especially a six max. So we introduce the idea of splitting the space between tournament and cash. I figure you can do a 6 player 12/12/5/6 or 9 player 8/8/4/7 with 300 chips. I did not realize this means @Hoakypoaky wants to limit the cash space to 300 chips.
So I think as I understand the dilemma
A: split the set and accept a 300 chip cash limit
B: Upsize the tournament set where 600 chips could cover 12 players at 12/12/5/6 or 18 at 8/8/4/7.
If you do option A and are looking for a cash set for a Max buy in of 25, while I think this might be tight and prefer larger cash sets, this breakdown of 300 may be useable short handed.
100*25c, 150*1, 50*5. For a six max cash game this would probably be okay for 25c-25c.
This would yield:
Six stating stacks of 16*.25 / 21*1
One stack of 4*.25 / 24*1
Ten stacks of 5*5
You can allow 5 dollar bills to play as well if needed.
You definitely need more chips if you need to cover larger buy ins for 25c-50c, but maybe that's enough of a set to start and try cash and is the best use of your 600 chip capacity for shorthanded games.
Get samples and party on Wayne.
