Hey everyone,
Ive recently hosted 1 tournament game ($25 bounty, 20k starting stack, 20m levels) and a few cash games (5¢/10¢, $20 max) and I really enjoyed them both. I hate having to pick which one I want to do when I host so I was thinking of making my games always start with a 2-3h long, $20 bounty tournament (6-9pm) then do a cash game afterward.
My biggest fear is that a few people will bust early from the tournament and not want to wait around until the cash game since I only have 1 table so I cap the players at 10. Another fear is that 8/9pm might be too late for people to want to start up a cash game. I usually host on Friday so by then people might be ready to just go home and go to bed after working all day and busting out of a tournament.
I wanted to know what everyone's thoughts were on doing a short single table tournament before starting up a cash game. Yay or nay?
