Just want to see if anyone here has ran a Omaha Tournament before and has some insights to share. I have with our group ages ago, and all I remember is that it was over very quick using the same structure as our Hold'em tournaments.
The idea would be to run a PLO tournament $20 with unlimited re-entry or a max of 5 re-entry's. Our usual game is $50 buy in with one re-entry. Keep in mind this is a league format so I want to make sure the tournament is roughly on par with the rest of the events in the season.
I'm wondering a few things:
NLHE Structure for reference:
20 minute levels 1500 chip starting stacks.
5/10
10/20
15/30
20/40
BREAK *Re-Entry's end*
30/60
40/80
60/120
BREAK - Remove 5s
75/150
100/200
150/300
BREAK
200/400
300/600
400/800 * Usually ends before here.
BREAK
600/1200
800/1600
1000/2000
1500/3000

I'm wondering a few things:
- What changes did you make if any to the structure/starting stacks?
- What about limiting the re-entries to 5 to keep on par with usual $100 max buy in to the tournament? Is it necessary to limit? 5 bullets in four levels might be a feat anyhow.
- Was there anything about your Omaha tournament that surprised you?
- Anything I'm missing?
