Wanted some feedback on this potential poker event/structure – curious if it has fatal flaws or things I’m not thinking about.
Context: Have been looking for a way to introduce more players to circus games as I need one or two more circus regulars, and wanted to have a ‘light’ event in between a big cash game and our league championship tournament. Finally, wanted to do something fun and “in the season”, hence…
Turbo Limit Circus White Elephant Night!
8 Player Maximum, seat preference given to those who have not ever attended a circus night (they ‘jump to the top of the list’)
Instead of a cash buy in, the buy in is a wrapped gift of a value between $40-$60.
We’d start with a first circus game, deal an educational ‘face up’ hand, and then run a turbo fixed limit tourney - 10k starting stack - (proposed blind schedule listed at the bottom) ideally attempting to run 30 minutes.
Play to a winner, winner gets to pick a present and open it.
Move to a second circus game, do the same educational hand and then turbo limit tourney. Play to a winner. Winner can either take the first gift, or open a new gift – white elephant rules.
We do this until we get through all the presents. The end – cash game or something.
Whaddya think? What would you change? Any fatal flaws I’m not seeing?
