If he does what BKKcoins does he might be able to ignore that fact and populate the boards from 1 up 10 or on the bigger board 1 up to 20. Seems like BKKcoins is going to make his so that you can add chips to the board later and the firmware will resolve how many chips there are on the board. Thus you can buy chips next time no need to scramble just yet.
