With 120 players, we start with a total of 120 x 2,500 = 300,000 chips.
Let's estimate the rebuys at 100 x 1,500 = 150,000 chips.
Let's say 3/4 of the people take the add-on 90 x 3,000 = 270,000
For an estimated grand total of 720,000 chips, though it's possible to go higher.
Using the estimation method of 20-30 BB's, that puts the end, some where around the 24,000-36,000 (roughly 30,000).
But we're using antes so the level that looks most likely to end is the final one posted of 10k-20k (10k ante)
According to the schedule the final level happens at the 540 minute mark, which makes it sound like a 9 hour tournament. Starting the tournament at 1pm, I'd also expect the tournament to end at 10pm.
Hey Tyson it is Cameron I just got back from the Friday's Tourney it was great and the after party was even better I will see you in a few hours I have been up for 28 hours so far and need to get 45 min sleep for the madness in less then 7 Hours away.
Hello everyone, I just wanted to say thanks to the organizers of todays tourny, it was very well run and alot of fun. I am looking forward to the next one. Well done everyone.
Steve
PS, Thanks Cameron for answering all my questions at the cash game.
Thanks guys you run an excellent tournament. My only real complaint would be the that the rebuys were for fewer than the starting chips so this makes you not want to lose your starting chips, and once the blinds got big people probably shouldn't have even bothered rebuying since compared to the blinds they just weren't getting many chips. I think a slightly more expensive rebuy for starting chips would be more appealing and get more money in the pot and encourage a bit more loose play in the opening stages. But you guys run these things all the time so maybe you know better than me. I don't think the extra chips would make a huge difference in finish time, the structure you had today was plenty quick though it did allow lots of play. You organization was excellent even with the 30 no shows though. Thanks again!
It was a GREAT tourney!
I had a blast, and as an introduction to true tournament style play, was perfect!
I can't wait for the next one (but maybe with an air conditioner?? )
It was a great tourney. Great job to the organizers as well as those who helped direct the tournament.
A follow up to SirWatts comments, I think once it got to near the end of the rebut period when blinds were 150/300 with antes of 25, it was more like "lets go gamble with rags and hope to double up" scenerio with the rebuy being only 5xBB and the antes eating away yoru stack the process. A more expensive rebuy (maybe similar to getting same number of starting chips for same cost) might work better, or have a restriction on the number of rebuys.
Just my two cents, take it for whats it worth. I have never ran any tournaments so I might be completely out in left field, so I apologize if my ideas are ridiculous and I'm just wasting space.
I just want to thank Brent, Cam and the other guy who ran the tourney. Thanks for a great day of fun. I also agree with the re-buy point. I think there would have been more action, and maybe even more money in the pot. I didn't want to take a chance and have to re-buy because if I only received 1500 I would have little room for maneuvering. If it would have been $30 for 2500 more, I would have loosened up. Another option would have been to allow a re-buy when people got below a certain amount of chips(maybe 1000), and allowing a re-buy of 1500 for $15. Anyways, it was a great event either way, and I will be at the next one for sure!!!
Thanks to Brent, Cam and everyone else who helped run the tourney. I had a great time and even though I crapped outta the tourney, yet again, I really enjoyed it. As per usual, I had much better success in the cash game afterwards so all in all it was a great day.
Thanks to brent and everyone at West Side for putting on another great tournament. Everything went smoothly and was well organized in my opinion. My friends and I will be back at future tournaments for sure. I personally had a great time and learned a lot. I wish I didn't blow it at the end, but live and learn.
