On the Poker Strategy the article http://www.cardschat.com/playing-live-poker.php states, “Keep your larger denominations in front so others can see them. You need to allow others to see your larger chips easily otherwise you will get asked for a chip count a lot.”
Could someone elaborate on this?
Playing 25/50 ring games, I have found that it is better to keep my larger denomination chips in the back. Is someone new to the table sees a gob of $25 and $50 chips and some $100 chips; they aren’t quite as threatened by me, which can be to my advantage. New comers to the game see an average stack, missing the couple of $1000 chips in the back of my tray, if they try to target me and I’ve got a good hand they can be in for quite the surprise.
Additionally, they are more difficult to knock out of the trays on accident and harder for pick-pockets to take.
Maybe the players that I play live with aren’t that good, but I only get asked for a chip count if they are trying to put me all in.
