Help with running a Home Tournament - Tex are you out there?, Jeff Timmerberg, 21. Oct 2002 13:55
    View ( Message | Thread )       Return to Thread List
We are trying to run our 3rd annual home poker tournament and are looking to make the style/structure more like the real thing. The main concern is TIME, for which I believe TEX (or anyone with access to TEARS) has the answer.

- Right now, the games are dealers choice (Stud, Hold'em or Draw).
- We should have approximately 50 entrants and would like the tournament to last about 5 to 6 hours.

Can someone suggest a structure with ante's, betting limits, and round length that would get our tournament over in about 6 hours?

Thanks in advance!

Heres another for you good luck should last 5 to 6 hours with 40 to 50 people. Very close to the other post just another idea for you.
