  • How many poker chips do you need? What about a tournament? What about a cash game? Don't worry, you can figure this out.
    Once you do your (max buy-in)(max players) calculation be sure you round up to your case size. If you have/want a 500 chip case, might as well fill it with 500 chips.

    YES! my 6-3 off-suit wins! The biggest pot I ever won at 1/2 NL was at Foxwoods Casino in CT with 6-3 of hearts. After playing for 13 hours straight, running good and playing well, I was dead tired, and I announced it was my last hand and I would be playing any two cards I got. I limp in the 5 seat and the 9 seat raises to $10. Well, I'm not going anywhere for $8 more. Flop comes 2, 4, 5 rainbow. I check, he bets, I call. Turn is a blank, i check, he bets, i call. River is an Ace. I bet, he raises, I go all-in. He knows at this point that my luck is unbeatable today. He gives a crying call and sees the bad news. He had pocket Aces and got a set on the river. I thought he was going to physically attack me. After cashing out, I had to walk back past that table, and well well well, look who got a seat change an is now in my seat. LOL

    our "typical" buy in for our micro stakes game is $20, but there is no limit or floor
    a $20 box gets you 40 nickles + 20 quarters + 10 1/2's + 8 dollars
    we have 8 boxes pre counted, plus 4 10 dollar boxes (half of each chip) plus some stacks of random extras
    usually our table has 6 or 7 players

      Horseshoe Cincinnati and Championship Poker Series are the two chips seen. I suspect you are asking about the obsolete Horseshoe Cincinnati. If you like those you can sometimes find them on the classifieds on PokerChipForum.com or ebay. I'd also have a look at the Horseshoe Cleveland chips. Thanks for watching.

    very interesting video. Problem is, I have been searching Google for 30 minutes looking for an answer to...
    A friendly nickel, dime quarter weekly game....$20 buy in....
    What is the correct, if not best quantity of each denomination to start for each player? As in, how many nickels, dimes, quarter chips each?
    Know it is probably way above your level, but would be helpful for a few of us to feel more "informed" for a friendly game.
    thanks.

      Wouldn't the Golden Ratio work? In fact, now that I've done the math, the Golden Ratio works perfectly.
      Stack Size: 100 chips
      Breakdown:
      $0.05 - 40 chips
      $0.10 - 30 chips
      $0.25 - 20 chips
      $1.00 - 10 chips
      Total: $20
      For the actual chips, there's two ways to do denominations: Either you could buy $5, $10, $25, $100 denominations and simply divide by 100; or you could order a semi-custom set and have them actually print the cents on the chips. BR Pro Poker does an excellent job at semi-custom sets, so if you REALLY want the cents printed on the chips, they could do so for not much more money than a stock set.

  • @cheapsofa6450

    Really loved the video!
    But I think I'm going with a T1500:
    20 - 5$
    20 - 25$
    9 - 100$
    Lots of chips is fun, 441chips 9 handed (blinds go up from 5/10 pretty quick). With some 1$ aswell I think I'm set for both tournaments and cash games! :3
    My cash games will be pretty low stakes to attract friends, 1$=7kr in Norway, so a 1$ chip will count as 1kr for the stakes sake.
    Thanks again for great content!!

    • @Hobbyphilic
      @Hobbyphilic  Před 7 lety +2

      I've seen them. Have you found a sample set? I personally like the more wild colored $25 and $5 chips in the Mint or Desert Heat sets. If you like the darker colors they will be just as good as any Claysmith metal slugged set. If you keep finding yourself back looking at that set, time to at least get a sample set or full set. Get what YOU like, not what I like. Hope that helps, thanks for watching
