Best Home Game Rebuy Tournament Structure ??????

[MrBeeks]

What is the best structure to run a home game NL Holdem Rebuy Tournament for 8 players that should take no longer than 4 to 5 hours to complete?

well since no one else spoke up, this is what I would suggest off the top of my head. It's a little difficult to know b/c I don't how much rebuying is going on. the more rebuys, the more chips in play. the more chips in play, the deeper the event, and the longer it will take for the blinds to force the action.

1000 chips. get 1000 for rebuys. unlimited rebuys for first hour, if you have 1000 or less. fifteen minute levels during the rebuy. 10/20; 20/40, 30/60, 50/100. no add on. color up the 10s.

after the rebuy, use 20 minute levels:

75/150
100/200
100/200 ante 25

150/300 ante 25
200/400 ante 50
300/600 ante 50 (color up your 25s after this level)

500/1k ante 100
750/1.5k ante 100
2k/4k ante 200

3k/6k ante 300
4k/8k ante 300
5k/10k ante 500

no antes head-up/

that is pretty crazy. don't do that. everybody start with 50 chips and can auto rebuy if they want. start with 1/2 blinds. Have this 1/2 structure for an hour while rebuys can take place. then you can add on after 1 hour, and then blinds up to 2/4 then 3/6 etc. every 20-30 minutes.
