Hi,
I've been reading this forum for a while, but never posted before.
As the title suggests, I'm hosting my first tournament this weekend and thought it would be good to sense-check my structure with people who've got more experience.
Details: 7 people, Texas Hold'em. Experience of players is low-average. I'm aiming for the game will be no longer than 3 hours.
Starting stack: 100
T10 / T20 / T50 (I've got higher denomination, but stack is limited)
30 / 20 / 10
Blinds increasing every 20 minutes:
10 / 20
20 / 30
30 / 40
40 / 60
60 / 80
80 / 100
100 / 150
150 / 200
200 / 300
300 / 500
Re-buy: in first hour only. No add-ons.
Payout: 50%, 30%, 20%
How does this look to a more experienced eye? Anything obviously wrong?
(expectations will be pretty low. As I say, this is an amateur game. But trying to avoid a crapshoot)
