Few of the people I play with don't play too often so the mini blinds at the start are just to kinda give them a chance to find their game and comfort zone.

1. 5 - 10
2. 20 - 40
3. 60 - 80
4. 100 - 200
5. 200 - 400
6. 400 - 800
7. 500 - 1000
8. 800 - 1600
9. 1000 - 2000
10. 1250 - 2500
11. 1500 - 3000
12. 2000 - 4000
13. 3000 - 6000
14. 4000 - 8000
15. 5000 - 10000 (capped?)

Maybe need to throw some antes in there?

I suggest you read the following article:

Blinds would be very small at 25/50 for 7500 in chips.

Why cap at 5k/10k level? If you have 20 players or so, there will be 150K out there. I'll go at least another level, depending on how many players started the tourney.

Also I think for a T7500 tourney your starting level is too low. It might take a long time to finish.

There would only be 8-10 people with this structure

Well, you could just do:

25/50
50/100
75/150
100/200

... and on


Same number of levels before 100/200, but easier to manage with T25 value chips. No T5 chip up.

I personally don't mind antes, except they slow the game down.
