Only 40 big blinds? That's pretty short, isn't it? What's a typical opening raise at your game?

it is short but that's all the kids wanna play for at one time. opening bud is normally $2. they don't make sense they only play for 20 at a time but will have multiple buy ins lol
How about.25/.25 blinds?

.25/.50
Yep, I was trying to say "how about" doing .25/.25 blinds instead? Would that possibly change the opening bet to $1.00? Or do you think they will still open to two bucks?
- Once/month, Pineapple or Texas Holdem Tourney
- $50 BI
- Unlimited $50 RB until 1st break
- $25 add-on at 1st break

My buy-ins are for Mahjong and it will vary between which game we play. While this isn’t exactly for poker, you can still find some similarities to poker buy-ins.
$.50/$1 game has a $25 buy-in. This is a friendly game and has 2 rebuys. It rarely gets to that point. This game is for family, close friends and some newcomers. We can also alter this game to play a $.25/$.50 game with a $20 buy-in. The $20 buy-in makes it attractive to the newcomers playing it.
$2/4 game has a $100 buy-in. This is a little more aggressive and has 2 rebuys. This game is for our regulars and goes for several hours.
$3/6 game has a $300 buy-in. This is the most aggressive game we play. We cap it at 1 rebuy. While there is a $4/8 game and higher, we do not play it. The 3/6 is agreed upon by everyone prior to playing it. It can get expensive and heartbreaking. Especially if the game goes for multiple hours and you’re losing!
