ME chip denominations

[Robbie Robb]

I couldn't find what you're looking for but they still have 5K chips in play when they resume. They will be removed from play about 20 minutes later when level 34 ends. So I figure they have 5K, 10K, 25K, 100K in play AT LEAST.

Here's what I ended up going with:

Levels:

I modified level 34 so that I didn't need to bother with 5K chips. I changed the Ante from 40K to 50K.

Chip Denominations:
Blue $25,000
Green $50,000
Red $100,000
Black $500,000
White $1,000,000

I also slightly tweaked the starting stacks. Two players needed to be slightly rounded up since I don't have anything smaller than $25K. Here's my starting stacks:

That last line is just the totals for each column. Obviously the colour columns are the quantity of each chip to reach the total.

Also, I'm using 20 minute levels instead of 2 hour levels. I like my friends, but not THAT much...

A small follow-up based on last night's game:

Chip denominations worked well. In retrospect would maybe bump up the blues and greens by the next step across the board. Ran into the need to swap chips across the table a few times - nothing serious though)

Biggest issue was level length. 20 mins was just too short. The shorter stacks didn't have much of an opportunity to overcome poor cards. Yeah, the short stack finished 3rd, but it was Nikki and she's a kick-ass tourney player.

Recommendation: Start early, include a dinner break and run 45 or 60 min levels.
