Problem on Chip Colors

I usually play no-limit Texas Holdem compose of 10 players. Well, every tournament, the chips are of the same value or if not have five separate values for each chip color. This set up has actually caused confusion on players as well as dispute. With so many values, players can’t distinguish which is which. What’s worst is that we only have 300 chips and if all chips will have the same value, the tournament will go too quick. In fact, for an extended time, we have tried to keep the blinds at 1-2, however in the end that table was down to 4 or 5 players just in 30 minutes.

Now, I personally don’t know what’s the best thing to do. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Burton,

If chip colors get confusing, then get a chart and post it with the different amount on the chart. Have it visible at all times. You can also think about getting chips that have the amounts printed on them. Chips in a tournament should not have all the same value. I would recommend buying several sets of chips if you have a good amount of players. This way you can tinker with the chip amounts and setup a structure that works for everyone.
