Thanks guys. Wvhillbiy, how many of each denom if i went with those three do you think would be good? Also how much would it cost roughly for a set like yours thats customized in 1000 pieces? By the way this was a repsonse i received on another forum

For a recently ended 0.25 0.50 game, the first 4 to buy in got 20 quarters, 20 dollars ($25) and the balance in $5 chips. The next 4 got 20 dollars, and the rest in $5. TBH, I tried to get more dollars on the table, often giving an extra stack (20) dollars to get 100 on the table.
If I wanted lots of chips, planned to keep 1000 chips on hand, had a big enough table to handle big stacks etc... would have been a stack of quarters and 2 stacks of dollars to each, and topping off with $5 chips. I also kept $10 chips when we got deep, and a stack of non-denom chips if we got really deep.
For a 10 person game, thats 200 quarter chips, 400 dollar chips and the balance in $5 chips brings the bank to $2350. If you think you'll want/need a bigger bank, sub out the last 100 $5 chips for $20 or $25 chips. I like the idea of $20 chips for rebuys, but it's personal preference.
I think you'll be good with 100 quarters on the table to start, and 400 dollar chips should make for enough chips not to worry about making change. There are generally guys who will run out of small chips all the time, regardless of starting stacks. Maybe a couple of players who like to hoard the small chips as well.
For the $1/2 casino games, there is rarely a need for chips bigger than $5, so your game should function just fine."
