I didn't know the rules... no more links. I just thought someone might like to read about a home poker game on the home poker page.

Bloggerbane, nevermind the nonsensical replies. They are just kidding around. Small Fry's explanation was correct. Larry was simply pointing out that it was odd to see a tourney use such small denominations.
For example at the casino tourneys you may buy in for $30 but you get 5000 chips (it's a good idea not to use dollar signs when referring to tourney chips since they don't represent real money yet). The blinds might start at 25/50 and when you get to heads up play they could be at 4000/8000. It will take the same amount of time to play the event as if you used 1:1 money to chip ratio but it just sounds better. GL with your game.
