Larger chip options in ring games

Is it possible to allow more then a max of 1000000 chips for the rake max and buy-in max, and more than 5,000 max on the blinds?
Maybe like, 9999999 on all chip fields?

Not likely until I switch to a floating point currency system and allow for adjustable table layouts. There's several problems with expanding those ranges, including internal 32-bit integer overflow issues, and squeezing more digits onto the bet buttons and the table graphics layout. By the way, the maximum buy-in on PokerStars' play money NL ring tables is 40K with 100/200 blinds. Their sit and go tourneys max at a 150K buy-in so Poker Mavens already well exceeds that.

Not even a way to at least get the blinds to be higher? In tournaments they can be much higher then 5,000 chips.

The max buy-in for a ring game should be about 100x the big blind. So the current 10K BB, 1M buy-in limits are already in line with that.
