Re: How long will this tourney take?
I gotta go with the other posters in this thread, at least 7-8 hours unless you've got pro dealers and everyone is a total LAG. It could go nine.
For 18 players with a decent mix of skill levels, I'd have a big blind equal to the starting chips around the time I wanted the tourney to end. The payout will influence the timing a bit, too. The more places that pay, the longer it'll take. From the bubble on, you'll often find players waiting on the smaller stacks to bust out.
