Tourney T 20,000 Tournament(10 person max) with add-ons. (1 Viewer)

[Beavis834]

We currently have a weekly game for our poker group. We use the standard denominations.( 100, 500, 1000, 5000). Here is our current structure:
T20,000 15/5/6/2. With an add-on of 10,000 after level 4.

100-200
200-400
300-600
400-800
Break. add-ons if wanted
500-1000
600-1200
700-1400
800-1600
1000-2000
1500-3000
Break. color up 100's and 500's
2000-4000
3000-6000
4000-8000
5000-10,000

I'm trying to make it as efficient as possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Also, I would also like to order some custom poker chips for the group. How many chips of each denomination would I need?

Thanks!
Kevin

Oh my oh my...
1. 100% transition between Stage 1 & 2.
2. Too bumpy transitions between stages.
3. 28 Chips per player for T20,000 STT is too low. Increase it to T25,000, perhaps? Do you offer rebuys/continues?

Anyway, here is my suggestion:

Suggested Blind Levels:
LV SB-BB
1 100-200
2 100-300
3 200-400
4 300-600
5 400-800
6 600-1200
7 800-1600
8 1200-2400
BLACK100-OUT!
9 1500-3000
10 2000-4000
PURPLE500-OUT!

Ok. Thanks for the advice! We do offer continues of 10,000 in chips the first 4 levels and you can still add on after level 4. We try to keep the tournament to around 3 hours. In the winter we try to get 2 games in without it getting too late....
