I'm relatively new to texas holdem and currently I'm trying to get a monthly home game going. However, I don't know all of the proper etiquette. For example, the lowest chip demonination I have is $1 but I'm afraid of not being prepared so I want to buy some $0.25 chips for lower blinds. Unfortunately, the Paulson chips I have only goes as low as $1. Would it be acceptable from myself to buy then play with a different chip brand from the rest of my original set? Any advice?
