Chip Sets and Colour-Ups
Describe the club’s chips once, in Club Settings. PokerSjef then fits every level to the chips, and it says at which break each small chip colours up.
Describe the Club’s Chips
- Open Club Settings, then the Defaults page.
- Under Chip Sets, add each chip: its value and the name of its colour.
- If you want, choose a colour for the chip and for its edge spots. The room clock draws the chips with them.
- Press Save the Chip Set. To use the set for every new event, press Make It the Default.
A club can describe several sets, each with its own name, such as a home set and a larger set. One set is the default.
Each chip shows its value and the name of its colour, so nobody depends on the colour alone.
Each Event Keeps Its Own Copy
- A new event starts with the default set. A director can choose another set on the Edit page of the event.
- The event keeps its own copy of the set until the event ends. A change to the set in Club Settings does not change it.
Levels That Fit the Chips
- The smallest chip of the set is the smallest amount of every blind, bet and ante.
- With the suggested starting stack, the small blind of level 1 is one smallest chip.
- Every blind, bet and ante is a multiple of your smallest chip. An amount that the chips cannot make shows in red.
- The quick event shows the chips that each player gets, such as 8 × 25, 8 × 100 and 2 × 500.
- The server checks the starting stack and the chips of a rebuy or an add-on against the chip set of the event.
Colour-Ups at the Breaks
- At a colour-up, the smallest chips leave play at a break. The dealers change them for larger chips.
- PokerSjef finds the break where each small chip can colour up. It never chooses the first break.
- A chip can colour up when every amount after that break, in every game of the mix, is a multiple of the next larger chip.
- At most one chip colours up at a break: the smallest. The largest chip never colours up.
- At each break, the structure names the chips that colour up.
- The room clock can show a row of the chips in play. At a break with a colour-up, the row shows which chips colour up.
