"Try this- initial stack size is 30-50x the size of the BB. Set the big bet equal to the initial stack, on the round/time you want to end the tournament approximately. Then figure out the increasing blinds and the time per round from there. If it gets less than 12-15 minutes, they might not be happy with the speed of play
Since you only have 8 players, you might even be able to made the rounds 5 minutes long. His orbit idea isn't a bad one either."

It could just be the cobwebs from too many drinks last night but I"m not really following.

I think by this thinking the first orbit would be 10/20. What are the subsequent orbits (do they double?).

I'm not very experienced in tournaments.


So if we each have 1000 in chips, where do the blinds start?
How fast do they increase (every orbit ok)? Antes or no antes?

Thanks.
