Default Re: Do most home tourneys take a small cut for food/bev costs?

Tourney I've been playing in has run once a week for about two months now. I've played in it the last four times with numbers of people ranging from 12 to 27. Fifty dollar buy in.

He just started chagring 5 bucks to play in it. And he doesn't provide anything (although he's had to buy a buncha chips and built another table, and the last game he was sitting next to me kinda hammered and offered me shots...).

I don't really begrudge him the five bucks, although I think it was inspired by the guys at the game soliciting for a 400 plus 40 dollar tourney. And I do begrudge those guys their juice, its one thing for a few bucks (ok a hundred for the tourney I've been in) for your trouble, its another for me to be part of your endeavor to make a couple of thousand bucks.

So no, five bucks for hosting and throwing in snacks too? Not a problem.
