I used the search, but couldn't find a description of the various structures at the different sites. I decided that I was going to make one for myself. Most of you probably know most of this, but I'm certain it will be helpful to somebody.

Party Poker
(Skins have exactly the same offerings for regular SNGs)
All Party blinds start at 10/15 and increase in the following fashion.
1) 10/15
2) 15/30
3) 25/50
4) 50/100
5) 75/150
6) 100/200

From here the Step Higher Payouts get tricky. The PP Server has a $5000+300 Step 5 Higher table available, which I have never seen run. The Website for PP lists these payouts for step 4 higher.

2: $5000
3: $3000
4: $1500
5: $500

It goes higher, but in a SNG, you probly will never get past 500/1000 if you even reach that.

I'll add these to the thread later, but right now, I'm going to sleep. If anyone else wants to add them to this thread, feel free to do so.

If what I have done here has helped anyone, my efforts have not been in vain. Besides, I got to watch ATHF while I was making it.
