2 Hour 6 Player Home Game Advice
Hey Everyone,
I have a bunch of college friends coming into town for the weekend. We have two hours two play a quick poker game. There will be 6 players. I'm thinking of setting the game up as a SNG with starting stacks of 1500 chips. My question is how fast should I increase the blinds to ensure we are done in around 2 hours? Is 1500 Chips a good starting amount? This game will be a low buy-in and mostly for fun, so its not a big deal if the game eventually turns into an All-In fest. Only 2 of us player poker seriously, the rest play only a few times a year. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. |

Why not do a cash game?

15 minute blind levels as such:
25-25 25-50 50-100 150-200 200-300 300-400 400-500 It's going to be a total crap shoot, but you can't expect much else with only two hours. I'd recommend two decks so you can keep the action going. |

This is similar to what I use, but not exact.
12 minute blinds. 10/20 20/40 30/60 50/100 75/150 100/200 150/300 200/400 250/500 300/600 400/800 500/1000 or 15 minute blinds 25/50 50/100 75/150 100/200 150/300 200/400 250/500 300/600 |

Re: 2 Hour 6 Player Home Game Advice
I'd go for a cash game first.
If not, then this might work for 1500 chips: 25/50 50/100 75/150 100/200 200/400 300/600 20 minute levels you only need 25 and 100 denomination chips This may end before 2 hours. So you could alternatively use 30 minute levels for the first three and then in the last half hour increase the blinds faster. |

This format sucks. 2 hours in a home game = 60 hands, tops... probably a lot less.
Just do a cash game. |

6 handed with 1500 in chips at stars with 5 min blinds takes about 30 min, so i'd say 15 min and you should be fine.
