When starting a home poker tournament. T5000 starting stack. To have chip bonus, how much is a far amount to give for on time and right payment.
"shouldn't" being the key word. I have very strongly considered having a bonus for this as well...You shouldn't need to bribe people
Depending on the platform you are playing on, you could just have a 5 minute late registration time. Anyone inconsiderate enough to show up later than that is SOL.We do 10% (1K on 10K).
Yes, everyone “should” be on time, but a lot of people don’t operate on the guidelines of what they should be doing. Now that we play online without the starting bonus there are quite a few people who show up 20-30min in because they don’t want to play the lower levels. So many so that sometimes we need to cancel the game and restart it 20min later when 8 more people magically show up. Really bothersome.
I love this idea! also I am going to Hell for even quoting this with the following statement... but being sick in the brain reading this thread and the ideas of late penalties I am blessed with a natural immaturity. It would be great if a player is late to make them stop and buy an "adult toy" new and unopened that has to stay on the table in their space (not only awkward but also a total pain in the ass to play around all night) that should fix the problem but also make for quality table talk!! LmaoMake your players bring a canned/food item or $10 (or whatever amount) as a optional bonus add on of 500-1000 chips in a T5000k tourney. My rule will be 2 items or min$10 that can be donated to the local food bank. Times are tough for folks your gambling depravity can give a few kids some dinner.
