Tourney T25 T10000 blind schedule (1 Viewer)

[MrE]

I'm pretty new to the forum and about the info and knowledge. I've been running a roughly monthly tournament for the last year+ and want everyone's thoughts on my structure below. All breaks are only 10min except the first one which is 20-30min as we have dinner. Does this sound ok for 10-20 players 1-2 tables, start at 5pm end around 11pm. We offer rebuys until the first break and add-ons. We normally have VERY few rebuys and almost everyone adds on an additional 10,000 chips. Would you tweak anything below? I'm open to all questions. Thanks in advance!

25/50 20min
50/100 20min
75/150. 20min
100/200 20min
Break. 20-30min
100/200 (25) ante 20min
150/300 (25) 20min
300/600 (50) 20min
400/800 (75) 20min
Break 10min
500/1000 (100) 20min
800/1600 (200) 20min
1200/2400 (300) 20min
1500/3000 (400) 20min
2000/4000 (500) 20min
3000/6000 (500) 20min
4000/8000 (1000) 20min
6000/12000 (1000) 20min
10000/20000 (2000) 20min
15000/30000 (2000) 20min

I had lost my previous blind set-up when my laptop died so this is what I made worn for the last tourney. Thanks in advance!

Adding a 200/400 (50) level would help to prevent the 100% blind increase (also delaying the break by one level). Other than that, it looks great. The other few minor adjustments I would make (though not super important) are:

Changing the 300/600 ante to 75 [ante 1/8th of BB]
Changing the 400/800 ante to 100 [ante 1/8th of BB]
Replacing the 500/1000 (100) level with 600/1200 (100) or 600/1200 (150) if before the break [more uniform increase]
Replacing the 1500/3000 (400) level with 1600/3200 (400) [ante 1/8th of BB, not important though]
Adding a break after the 1500/3000 (400) or 1600/3200 (400) level [color up the 100s]
Changing the 6000/12000 ante to 1500 [ante 1/8th of BB]
Changing the last two levels (likely will not be played but still able to change) to 8000/16000 (2000) and 12000/24000 (3000)

Makes sense. I like the suggestions. Thank you

In addition to the above suggestions, to avoid an early 100% increase (essentially slashing stacks in half after only 20 minutes), either:

• add a 25/75 level, or
• increase stacks to 20k and eliminate 50/100
