    Last time out, assuming average spend was 40 Euro (1 buy-in plus 1 re-buy/topup, very very conservative guess).

    You got in 2800 (probably alot more), and paid out 1450, ie, less than 50% of what you got in. Very, very bad return for players.

    Also, rebuys are allowed until 10:30, at which point 4000 chips would be 1.3BBs. Oh dear.

    Suggestions:
    Have rebuys for the first 3 or 4 blind levels only.
    Put buyin's into the prize pool, and rebuys/topups go to the fund.

    Hi Jaden - sorry for the delay in responding to this.

    We made around 1400 for the club, 300 in costs and 1450 in prize fund last time if memory serves me. Most players are club members and recognise it is a fun night with main aim of raising funds for club.

    You are correct on blinds - they were problematic last time and I think we ended up offering a large top-up at around the 10pm mark.

    Will get the blind structure right this time round.
    thanks for your comments.
