I might go to a live multi table tournament where about 50 people normally show up. Everyone gets 5000 chips to stat with and the blinds begin at 25/50 and double every 20 minutes. Will this become an all in fest?

I wouldn't pay to watch let alone play....

Yea, it could become a crapshoot. But if the other players are generally weak, playing extra-aggressive early to build a big stack or go bust is probably your best bet, and could be quite profitable.

This starts off as a fast structure and keeps getting worse. The "post and fold burn rate" is around 70 hands meaning if you post and fold every hand you'd last 70 hands. This compares to around 90 for the typical Party tournie. And it will eventually get to the point that the largest stack is forced to push any hand they enter. I wouldn't play it personally.
