This structure should definitely finish within the alotted time frame. |
I originally had the antes double what I wrote above but decided that may be too much. I may try it like this for this month and adjust if it doesn't get us to the desired time frame.
We do only have the 5s in play for 2 rounds (used to be 3 when we had a 20-40 in there) so I see what you are saying, but I know most of the players like to start really small and feel free to play lots of hands. This game is super loose during the rebuy period and we usually have 1 or 2 rebuys before the 10-20 level ends. I don't want to shorten the amount of time we allow rebuys because they really do add considerably to the prize pool, but I'd like to keep the game close to the original timeframe.
Thanks for the ideas so far.
