PART 2

Getting Set Up

So, now the essentials are in the bag you’re ready to begin

thinking about the finer details of your home poker tournament. Let’s take a look at

everything you need to keep the tournament moving, from setting blind levels and

starting stakes to poker chip distribution and tournament structure.

Stakes

Setting

stakes in a home poker tournament boils down to how much the players want to play for.

Ideally you want a buy-in that players will be comfortable paying for (and if rebuys or

add-ons are going to be available, that should also be a factor).

Setting buy-ins too

high may put off some of your invited players who are seeing your poker home game as

more of a fun activity than the chance to win some prize money. Likewise, setting the

buy-ins too low will probably put off players who are attracted by the opportunity to

win some extra cash. It’s a balancing act that depends on the players who will be

playing, so bear that in mind and, however much you choose to play for, make sure

everyone knows the details in advance.

Structure

While the World Series of Poker Main

Event uses a freeze-out structure that eliminates players once they bust, in our

experience a rebuy structure is better for home games. Giving players the option to buy

back in when they lose all their chips makes things more exciting and more appealing.

You’ll also find that players take bigger risks when they know rebuys are

allowed.

Add-ons – extra buy-ins available to all players at the end of the rebuy

period – can also be a great way to help short stacks gain a foothold back in the game,

as well as to boost the prize pool.

Consider the payout structure too. Will one player

take the entire prize pool, or will you have first, second and third place prizes? The

more players you have, the more spots you should pay out. As you may not know the final

number of players until the tournament is ready to begin, this may be something to

discuss with your fellow players before starting play.

Setting the Blinds

Just like in

a high stakes casino, you should establish your blind structure well in advance and,

once the tournament has begun, stick to it. Blinds structures like the examples we

provide here are fairly standard and unlikely to surprise many players.

If you want a

tournament to play out faster, you can always make the levels shorter. This will speed

the pace along, but not at a blind rate that feels too intimidating. Skipping blind

levels is not something you should generally consider, as it will usually disadvantage

some players in an unfair way.

When you reach heads-up play you may want to make the

levels a little faster – especially if you’re planning on playing a second tournament

and other players are hanging around and waiting – but it’s essential that both players

agree to this.

When it comes to blind structures, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all

formula. Use your instincts and remember that the structure you choose influences how

long your tournament lasts. If you’re not sure about setting your own blinds, or just

want a bit of guidance, here is a good basis to work from, and below you’ll find more

options for three starting structures we suggest.

DOWNLOAD Blind Schedule 1 A good entry-level blind structure for first time

tourney holders. Blinds are smaller to accommodate players just learning the ropes.

DOWNLOAD Blind Schedule 2 A mid-level structure with slightly increased blinds. This is

perfect for tournaments where skill varies from player to player. DOWNLOAD Create Your

Poker Chip

Distribution

How many chips you start with in a poker tournament depends on a few

things, but mainly the size of the blinds in level one. As a general rule of thumb,

starting stacks should comprise between 50-100 big blinds for the first blind level.

A

500-chip set will usually provide all the chips you need for a home tournament –

certainly for a single table tourney. If you want each player to have a bigger stack of

chips (which has the upside of needing to make change less frequently) then deal out a

larger number of smaller value chips. Otherwise, you can get away with using fewer

chips per player, if you add in some higher denomination ones to each buy-in stack.

to poker chips.
