Im going to have a tournament with some friends at home.
I have 150 white chips
150 red chips
100 green
100 blue
The blinds will increase every 7 hands (I don't wanna do minutes, friends might get impatient)
I want to keep it simple so what do you think is a good chip value? And how deep should the stack be with bb? Should we start with 150bb or 100bb? Thanks

Btw, We don't know how much player are you talking about, I suggest 10 maybe, 2 tables with 5 players.
Coz it is a home game, better to play with deep stacks, you know.. it will be casual poker even if you have little friendly buy-in. ( i guess winner buys a booze for all :) ) I like to play with white 1e blue 2e green 5e and red 10e, blinds are small blind/small blind 1/1, after dealer button spin a circle 2/2 and so on.., without sb/bb the game will be much more dinamyc; count the chips for exect num. of players, for deeper stack you can cound red chips 15e

Thanks man. I might give that a try, no sb and bb, just the same blinds. I guess it keeps it more smooth running and simple
