Tourney Tournament with cash set (.25/.50 blinds) (1 Viewer)

[Schrodngercat]

Hey guys,

Looking to use my cash set to host a tournament and was thinking of this blind structure, what do you think? Any opinions on it?

$100 in chips buyin (200BB), 20 minute rounds

Level	Small	Big
1​	$0.25​	$0.50​
2​	$0.50​	$1.00​
3​	$0.75​	$1.50​
4​	$1.00​	$2.00​
5​	$1.50​	$3.00​
6​	$2.00​	$4.00​
7​	$2.50​	$5.00​
8​	$3.75​	$7.50​
9​	$5.00​	$10.00​
10​	$7.50​	$15.00​
11​	$10.00​	$20.00​
12​	$15.00​	$30.00​
13​	$20.00​	$40.00​
14​	$30.00​	$60.00​
15​	$40.00​	$80.00​
16​	$50.00​	$100.00​
17​	$75.00​	$150.00​
18​	$100.00​	$200.00​
19​	$150.00​	$300.00​
20​	$200.00​	$400.00​
21​	$300.00​	$600.00​
22​	$400.00​	$800.00​

I'm thinking the 200BB buyin might be too much? maybe drop it down to 150?

No offense, but this structure (ie, using cash fracs for blinds) would drive me completely bonkers.

If you HAVE to do it, I'd recommend getting rid of any $XX.50 blinds. Just make them whole dollars once you get past .25/.50 and .50/1.00. It's just easier. And you can use blind levels like 2/3 and 2/4 to avoid constant doublings.

I would do 4-6-8-10 in levels 6-9 instead of 4-5-7.5-10

^^ which also allows you to color-up the quarters sooner. Along the same lines, you need to be at 3/6, 4/8, 6/12, 8/16, 10/20 to get rid of the change (and 1s, after 8/16).

And I think I'd either ditch the first level and start with 100bb, or keep the 200bb stacks and add a L2=T.25/T.75 level. Not much sense in 200bb stacks if you're going to slice them in half almost immediately.
