EDIT i realize i should have put this post into the "
Post your starting stacks/blinds here for others' information" tread. sorry guys.
Wassup guys, I would advices to improve or rather refine my tourny..
each saturday, i host a tourny of about 15-20 ppl.
buying is $10
for instance if it was a 19 people tourny payout would be
1st - 120
2nd - 50
3rd - 20
everyone would get $2000 worth of chips
8 x $25 = $200
6 x $50 = $300
5 x $100 = $500
2 x $500 = $1,000
___________________
total + $2,000
reason for the $50 is i am using a bunch of old sets of dice chips (until i am ready to buy the nexgens)
blinds would start off as the following with 20 minute intervals
0025 | 50
0050 | 100
0100 | 200
0150 | 300
0200 | 400
0300 | 600
0400 | 800
0500 | 1000
1000 | 2000
and it usually ends after that... the games last about 5 hours, and i kinda wanna cut it down just a bit.. is there something that i am doing wrong?
Also, when do i break down the tables? suppose i have 3 tables of 6-7 each.
my last question is, Like I said, i am planning on purchasing nexgens.. and decided on $25s $100s $500s $1,000s and maybe $5,000s. any suggestion on how i should break up the amounts? i am probably going to get the 1000 set under a 500 set would do just fine for the tournys i have.
thanks for the future input guys!
