Surprisingly, we've never had a poker night with this many people. It looks like we're going to get at least 14 people show up for tonight's tournament.
Usually, we tend to focus on paying out slightly less money to more people than paying out slightly more money to less people. It usually works out to be ~ 1/3 of the people at least get their buyin back.
I was thinking a structure like this:
Total prize pool: $700 (payouts are gross, not net)
First place: $300
Second place: $200
Third place: $100
Fourth place: $50
Fifth place: $50
or
First place: $400
Second place: $150
Third place: $100
Fourth place: $50
Any suggestions/comments? This is a tournament with no rebuys and no addons (the norm for us).
