Anyone have a good structure for blinds for a t1,000 small 6-8 player tournament
looking at blind increase every 20 minutes. Even a good chip distribution if you have the time..

THANKS !!!

Smallest chip value?

 

[upNdown]

Assuming 5 is the smallest value, off the top of my head, I'd go with:

5/5
5/10
5/15
10/20
15/30
25/50
35/75
50/100
75/150
100/200
150/300

I have a few questions:
1 - how long would it roughly last with 2 tables of 8 players instead of 1?
2 - would you recommend playing T1500 rather than T1000? I find it nicer for players to have a little bit of action for the first 3/4 levels and with 500 more it does the trick, T2000 on the contrary plays worse for me (playing with the same levels);
3 - in place of your L5 and L6 we usually play one single level at 25/50 and after that we play an additional level after your L9 at 125/150; is that much worse or just about the same?

Thank you, great advice!
