Starting Chips

Starting stack is 2,500 chips with 15 minute blind levels. Chip values are as follows: (4) 25 chips, (9) 100 chips, (1) 500 chip, (1) 1000 chip

You will receive 100 additional starting chips each night for every new guest you bring that registers and plays.

You will receive 100 additional starting chips for every time you RSVP and arrive on time.

Blind Schedule – 25/50, 50/100, 100/200 (chip up 25’s) 5 min break 200/400, 500/1000 (chip up 100’s) 5 min break 1000/2000, 2000/4000, 4000/8000, 8000/16000, 16000/32000

Please note: in some rare cases, the tournament host may revise the structure in order to meet the needs of the bar, otherwise the blind structure should not be changed.

Depending on the number of players starting the tournament, it is not necessary to increase the blinds when the amount of the blinds reaches 10% of the total chips in play. This results in better final table play.

Chip Up – During the breaks, unnecessary small chips will be chipped up. For example, at the end of Level IV, 25’s are no longer needed. 25’s are rounded up to the nearest 100.

When time has elapsed in a round and a new level is announced by the tournament host, the new level applies to the next hand. A hand begins with the first riffle (shuffle)
