Default Re: need help for home tourney

unless you have hours and hours of time available you will automatically run into this with that many people. I have a home game about once a month and it still seems like it's push or fold towards the end of mine and we typically only have between 8-12 people. 20 minute blinds live you just don't see many hands. Getting 2 decks going will help tremendously. I wouldn't do the stop the clock while shuffling though. Too inconsistent. It will piss someone off. Just increase the length of each blind.

Weeknight games where people don't want to be out til all hours of the night due to work the next day are very difficult to do.

You could also lower the buy-in and offer a rebuy in the first hour. That tends to increase the action.

Good luck.

Homepokertourney.com has some good info.
