Poker Chips

Hey everyone my name is Dave and I'm new to the forum. I am wanting to buy some chips and was wondering if there is a specific colour combo I should stick with or is it ok to change up the colours? Please let me know, and I can't wait to start playing in some games.

there are some pretty standar colours for chip values out there.

$1 = white
$5 = red
$25 = green
$100 = black

any denominations over that are usually up to whatever the hosts have available.

Just some thoughts dave.........

What stakes will you be playing?
Will you be playing tournements?

It will depend if you are looking to use these chips for tournaments or cash game. While chip colour tend to be interchangable, it is common to see white as $1, red is $5 etc. And if you're running cash game, you might load up more on the white, where as tournament you will need a wide variety.

Don't buy chips with deominations already printed on them. They really limit you in the future.

I think Homepokertourney.com may have good suggestions. They are a great resource.
