$50 50/50 tourney followed by 25c/50c cash game NLH

edited October 25 in Poker Games
2pm tourney start. Even number of entrants (up to 10 people max). $50 buy in. Once half the players are eliminated, the other half receive payment ($100. $50 of their initial buy-in, plus another $50 for being among the surviving half of the players), and then cash game starts.

10 seats available at table. Tournament players are able to hold their seats, whether they win or lose. There's room to hangout and wait for an open seat.

$50 starting stack for tournament. Blinds start at 25c/50c and double every 20 minutes until half of the entrants are out.

Cash game is a minimum buy-in of $25 (50 big blinds), and max buy-in is $100 (200 big blinds).

Dinner will be ordered around 6pm which people can choose to pitch money for to participate. Game runs very late if people are still playing.

Street parking available. Near Lancaster and Wellington intersection, Kitchener.

  • So you pay $50 ($500), then when it's down to 5 players, everyone gets $50 ($250) and the game stops, and the cash game begins? What happens to the other $250?
    Jawse
  • Yes, the game stops when half of the players are eliminated, and the other half double their money. The other $250 ($50 each of the 5 winning players), they can choose the following:

    1. Take their $50 winnings and leave
    2. Use the $50 to buy in to the cash game that follows.

    I will edit the post and add that there is a $25 minimum buy-in for the cash game. Max buy-in is $100.
  • I'm not following tbh, this doesn't really make any sense.

    Perhaps you mean they receive payment of $100?

    Sorry if I made it unclear. When half the players are eliminated, the eliminated players lose their buy+in of $50, and the remaining players receive $50 each, which comes from the eliminated players.

    For example, if there's 8 players in the 50/50 tournament, when 4 players are eliminated, the tournament just stops right there. The eliminated players have lost their money, and the remaining players have effectively doubled their money.

    So yes, as the comment above mentioned, the winning half of the players receive a payment of $100 (their initial $50 buy-in, plus an additional $50).

    This remains unclear 🤣

    Do you only collect the $50 buy-in *upon losing*?
  • Upon losing, as in being the first half of the people eliminated, you get nothing. You lose your buy-in. Your buy-in goes to the winners.
  • $50 tourney. Double or nothing.

    I have 5 players left to confirm. I sent messages to each of them. If no confirmation is received by around 2pm tomorrow (Friday the 25th), I will be replacing those names with anybody who is not on the list that gives me a solid confirmation starting from the bottom of the list (slot #10). Please check messages to confirm and address info!
  • I didn’t receive a message, am I confirmed?

    Yes no problem. I can't seem to send you a private message with my address. Your profile is set to private. You'll have to change that and I'll send you address when I can.
