Hi all

New to the forum. Trying to learn more about poker chips to eventually purchase a quality clay set for tournaments without breaking the bank

Welcome to the forum, @Magic613.

What stakes are you playing? How often do you play and how big is the field?

Hi Everyone - 6-10 people in small tourney, $50 buy in - starting stack 8-12K - rebuys for first 4 levels (15-20 minute levels) sometimes antes. I'm thinking I need between 500-1000 chips. Thoughts?

thinking I need between 500-1000 chips. Thoughts?

I bet a well thought out set of 600 chips will be more than needed for 10 players with rebuys and color ups

something like 12/12/7/5 starting stacks for T10000 with nice # chips to start with

25's: 120
100's: 200
500's: 100
1k's: 100
5k's: 80

should be enough for color ups and using the 5k's towards rebuys will help

600 chips is plenty for a one table cash game.

Agreed.

I use 800 for 20 players and have several barrels that never see play.
