I want to buy poker chips and most sets i see on ebay that are 500 pieces offer it with 150 1 dollar grey chips, 150 red 5 dollar chips, 100 25 dollar green chips, 50 50 dollar blue chips and 50 100 dollar black chips. I can also customize it and have any denomination and quanity of 500 chips i want for extra 5 dollars. The total for this on ebay including shipping is about 60 dollars which is not much to me.

My question is should i customize it and just have 1 dollar, 5 dollar and 25 dollar chips and forget about having any 50/100 dollar chips? I also see that i can choose 10 dollar chips as well. I just play poker with about 4-5 friends and we usually play like a mini- tournament and none of them really like to play cash games. I also want to have a set for myself and i noticed that when i played 1-2 no limit at the casino, all they gave me were 1 and mostly 5 dollar chips.

Should i customize it and have more 1 and 5 dollar chips and forget about the big denomination chips or should i just buy it the way it already is. I kind of feel like i rather customize it and have only 1 dollar, 5 dollar, 10 dollar and some 25 dollar chips in case for home games i may have in the future.

And to those people who have home games that play 1/2 no limit, do you guys only carry 1 5 and 10 dollar chips? I feel like the 50 and 100 dollar chips are sort of worthless unless i play tournamnets.

1 person told me that i should not buy premarked chips and to just buy chips with no labels on it. I find those to be plain though but marked chips can be annoying. Whats my best option

thanks guys.
