I have friends, but when I am out of college and find people who are willing to risk more than the sum of $0, I already have a standard AND high roller 2-day tournament structure ready to go for my theoretical set, enough for three 3-table day 1 flights and a day 2 which plays down to a winner.
I do also have a thread in progress where I'm putting my thoughts on mystery bounties and will eventually write one on why I think the EPT has the best payout structure of any series and how to adapt it for more/less aggressive structures.
For those interested, live tournament fees are usually about 1.1x5^logx, where x is the entire buy-in with fees included. This will never fit anywhere else on this forum except in this specific conversation, so i figured I'd throw it in while it makes sense.
