    Hi guys, just introducing a new game held at the Randwick Rugby Club.

    Its a $150 ($125+$25) buy in with no re-buys or add-ons. The game starts at 7pm every Thursday night. Dealers are provided as well as drinks staff, combined with a convenient and comfortable environment.

    The blinds structure used is as follows: Blinds are 20 minutes in length.

    25/50
    50/100
    100/200
    100/200/25
    200/400/50
    300/600/50
    400/800/100
    500/1000/100
    800/1600/200
    1000/2000/200
    1500/3000/300
    2000/4000/500
    3000/6000/500

    Last week was our first week and there were 16 participants which generated a $2000 prize pool. So if you are looking for a nice structured and dealt game, this is perfect for you!

    Unfortunately we have time constraints so we cannot expand on the current structure. However, given that we have only missed three levels in your opinion, the structure is not too far from your ideal structure, a good compromise I would say. I have also had feedback from players saying they would like to finish slightly earlier in order to not have 3-4 hours sleep before work the next day.

    Antes are ok as long as there are dealers

    I guess, as long as they are right on it. Would still make for a faster game without them in these kind of tourneys. In my case, id be to drunk to remember them after a while .

    Why dont you play the tournament on a Friday night or Saturday morning? You will get more players and also have a better structured tournament (Say 30 minute blinds) with all the in between levels. This is a $150 TURBO tournament. Your chip leader on the final table will have 10BB. Its a joke you even call this structure a poker tournament. You might as well get 20 people together, all throw in $150 and flip coins for the prize money.

    You think charging that high a rake, there might be some play in there, and back to the antes, the just make the structure so much worse.

    I think 20-25 min blinds are fine, but with the blinds the way they are this tourney will not take off. If your looking for the same 16 runners each week, then best of luck but you. If you want to make it something more people want to play you need to change nights, or change venues where you can you run it later.

    Just my 2 cents.

    To GTroj79,

    You obviously have no idea what you're talking about. Antes make the game so much better, rewarding aggressive play, and faster especially when you have a dealer. Go play APL if you want a soft game to get drunk at.


    To Kings Poker,

    The Antes is a great idea but ur structure and buyin is a bit out of whack. Its not bad but its not great either. You are charging more than 16% rake which is far too much. If $25 is the min you need to pay dealers than you need to make the buyin bigger. What is the starting stack? The structure is alrite but you def need 150-300 and 600-1200. I've never heard of poker players saying they want the game shorter and if so, sounds more like punters than players and should be told to just have a quick slap on pokies and fuck off home. The fact that you have time restrictions worry me. I do not want to come in and play till the end only to be told I have to split cus the club needs to close. Either put it on a different day, different time, or different venue, cus the integrity of the game is most important if you want repeat business. Anyways the game seems interesting enough to come try (only cus of the antes and dealers) but if the flaws I pointed out does infact become an issue than yeh....the game won't last

    The $25 admin fee covers both gst and dealer charge, there is no rake fee.
