    Hi Guys,

    Looking for your views on this one before i book it. Was thinking about the October Bank Holiday weekend.

    I will be making some changes to the last Heads Up tournament we ran.

    1. Instead of a guaranteed prize pool, it will be €100 & €10reg with all of the €100 going into the prize.

    2. Looks like it will be the Plaza Hotel, Tallaght.

    3. Thinking about changing the blind levels from 15mins to 20mins (with the blinds been frozen, i'm not sure if this is necessary as some games went on for a long time. One of the quarter final games went on for almost 4 hrs)

    4. Thinking about increasing the numbers from 128 players to 256 players, for a total prize pool of €25600. This would give €10000 for 1st and €5000 for 2nd.

    Round 1 & 2 Chips 2500
    Blinds
    25-50
    50-100
    75-150
    100-200
    125-250
    150-300 (frozen until finished)

    Round 3 & 4 Chips 5000
    Blinds
    25-50
    50-100
    75-150
    100-200
    125-250
    150-300
    200-400
    250-500 (frozen until finished)

    Quarter Final and Semi Final 10000 Chips
    Blinds
    25-50
    50-100
    75-150
    100-200
    125-250
    150-300
    200-400
    250-500
    300-600
    400-800
    500-1000 (frozen until finished)

    Final 20000 Chips
    Blinds
    25-50
    50-100
    75-150
    100-200
    125-250
    150-300
    200-400
    250-500
    300-600
    400-800
    500-1000
    600-1200
    800-1500 (frozen until finished)

    Your views on this one would be greatly appreciated.

    20k stacks and low blind levels would take hours or day to finish. Maybe look at adjusting blind levels for after the first rounds.

    Lafortezza,

    Very ture, thats the main reason why i think it should be 15 min blind levels.

    What do you think about the following options?

    Option 1
    Change the starting amount of chips to 7500 for the quarters and semi final, and 10000 chips for the final and leave the same blind structure.

    Option 2
    Change the blind stucture to.
    25-50
    50-100
    75-100
    100-200
    150-300 (frozen until finish for round 1 & 2)
    200-300
    300-600 (frozed until finish for round 3 & 4)
    400-800
    500-1000 (frozed until finish for Quarters & Semi)
    600-1200
    800-1500
    1000-2000 (frozed until finish for final)

    I have omitted the following blind levels
    125-250
    250-500
    Do you think these should be included in the earlier rounds?

    Also please note the this will be a 2 day event just like the last one.
