Need some help setting up a poker tournament. Me and my friends get together and play poker on the weekends. About 6-8 people. Recently bought a new poker set and need some help setting up a poker game. Things like blind structure starting stacks and etc. We’re just tryna have fun so the max buy in is probably 10-20 dollars.
These are the chips I have
150 $1
150 $5
100 $25
50 $50
50 $100

Probably not getting many replies because this is a very popular question. Use the search tool is the #1 answer. Good luck.

As stated, there are many posts on this subject. However, you should also consider how long you want the tournament to run, whether you will allow rebuys, etc. If everyone is newer to playing a faster tournament where you can possibly get two games in a night could make sense.

For my home game the starting stack is 500...
10-$1
10-$5
4-$10
8-$25
2-$100

Since you don't have 10's you can adjust accordingly.

Our buy in is $20 and we allow unlimited rebuys until the break where we color up the $1s, ($10 gets you 250 chips). Also during the break you have the option to add on ($5 gets you 100 chips or $10 for 200) good way to help build the pot.

We do 13 min blinds and the game typically lasts about 4 hrs (not a very aggressive game)


Hope this helps
