Anybody in Europe going for a cash set and willing to piggy back a rack of $1s for me?
Would be much appreciated :tup:
 
Still looking for someone willing to pick up a couple of racks of $1s for me with their order. PLEASE don't make me try to buy a whole bunch of chips that I really don't need.

@TheChipRoom Jim, I know you don’t disclose numbers but several of us are looking to buy just $1s. While there’s no way to gauge how many will sell the first half hour, do you predict the $1s being sold out within that time window.
 
As someone who also just wants to buy $1’s, I anticipate that even if there is any quantity left after the first half hour, there won’t be any after the first half hour plus 30 seconds.
 
I waited an hour to get in on the previous sale and I was able to get what I needed. Mind you I picked up $1 and $5 and $25. The $.50 and $500 we sold out as I expected.
 
Sweet baby jesus. This might be my first foray into Paulsons. No fracs though? Didn't see that option.
 
Holy crap. Spotted roulettes could make a epic tourney set.
How do people generally make they work? Mill and relabel? Or keep them as is? Is there a way to keep the hotstamp and add a demon somehow?

The previous $1s were dogs in my honest and no-value opinion. The $5 and the $25 were blah. Yawn. Boring.

Not the case with the Isle set. Dam nice $1s
 
I want to buy 400 chips... I’m not sure how many of each denom to buy? Anyone have advice? I was thinking this:

110- $1
100-$5
100-$25
80-$100
10-$500
 
this lineup is like: YES, meh, meh, YES, YES, YES.

Just for play-ability sake, If you play cash games - Say $1/$2, i think the general consensus would be

100 $1s
200 $5s
200 $25s
100 $100s

if you play $0.25/$0.50, you'd want

100 fracs (none available here)
200 $1s
200 $5s
100 $25s

if you are restricting yourself to 400 chips, take about 67% of each - depending on how many people you typically host and how much bankroll you think you need.

Thanks so much! I’m stuck to 400 due to budgetary constraints...and I play in a tourney with no more than 8 guys. They loved my spirit mold CC’s...but they deserve more...
 
I think they are giving you cash set breakdowns. If you want tournament you should specify.
Yes, tournament would be a whole different line-up. Hopefully someone more experienced than me would be able to jump in and give you a suggestion for a 8-player tournament limited to 400 chips.

Ok thanks! Yeah we do tourneys only so no one loses too much money...

Here's the trusted source for structures:

No reason he can't stick with a T1-base tourney set, either: T1/T5/T25/T100 works just fine for T500 starting stacks and 1/2 opening blinds (10/8/10/2, 250BB).

350 chips is all that is really needed for a single-table event:
100 x $1
100 x $5 (20 for $1 color-ups)
100 x $25
50 x $100 (5 for $5 color-ups, plus 25 extras).

I have to look away before I get tempted. After reading this post I put together an excel of what that set would cost... BUT.. then it becomes "can't buy chips from this sale and not try for any $500 or $1k" and eventually at a $800 USD purchase.
Just get a few 500s and 1k chips. I ran a T400 with my Jack set and loved it. It was a real treat at the final table when a few 500 primaries hit the table.
