Default Re: Theory behind big Add-On\'s?

Whoah, dude, I didn't realize you were legitimately upset with me. No reason for it, dial it back.

No, you idiot:
1) I meant your blinds structure, not your buy-in details (I know I'm stupid, but I can freakin' READ....)

Compare and contrast with this:

Did you ever post your final rebuy structure

[/ QUOTE ]

I must have mistunderstood. Can you see why? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] Anyway, I did post it in some other thread somewhere, but here it is:

20/20
20/40
Break (dinner)
40/80
60/120
Break (rebuys done, do addons)
100/200 (20a)
200/400 (40a)
Break
300/600 (60a)
400/800 (80a)
Break
600/1200 (100a)
800/1600 (200a)
Break
1000/2000 (300a)
1500/3000 (500a)
2500/5000 (1000a)
Break
5k/10k (2ka)
10k/20k (4ka)
20k/40k (8ka)

And that's as far as I've done because we've never needed it. Generally an hour between breaks (later rounds are a little shorter). We usually start by 7pm, most bust out between 10pm-midnight, final table can last a while.

2) I meant why make it T20a when you can go T25 and dump the wannabe-reds?

[/ QUOTE ]

Ah. Well, I don't do standard colors (it's the Bay Area, we're allowed). I use T20 as my lowest chip (used to use reds, hence my confusion, thought you had seen a reference somewhere), again to help with the illusion that we're using lots of big money. Nobody carries $25 bills. $20 is a real-world denomination that's familiar and comfortable. Also, it worked well in creating the structure, which by now has been tweaked to be near ideal for our group and our goals. Might not work as well for others, but good thing I'm not doing this for others. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
