Best blind structure? (1 Viewer)

Hey all, just curious what yall think the best blind structure is for home games of $75-$100 and what yall commonly do for hosting games. Thanks!

If you're talking cash games, from .25/.25 for deep stacks up to .50/1.00 for more or less normal starting stacks.

If you're talking tournament, it all depends on your chipset.

Yeah, let us know. What chips do you have, how long do you want your game to last, how many players, etc.

We usually define tournaments as the chip they start with (T25, T100, etc.), and how much people start with at the beginning. Give us an idea of what kind of game you want to run and we can help you out.


If its a all a blank slate and you're starting from scratch, I love my T100 set, meaning it starts at 100 being the smallest.

Its built so that everyone starts with 40,000 in chips and the blinds start at 100/200, and they increase at whatever time I set.

Starting stack:
10 100s
8 500s
10 1000s
5 5000s

Yeah, cash or tourney? I want in on either.

For a $100 tournament, plenty of structures on the forum. Do a quick search. That'll help determine game length too.

$100 cash, prob .50/1.00. I believe that keeps it around 100bb. (Big blinds).

Type of players matter too.

Good luck.

I think $75-100 buy in is perfect for a 0.25/0.50 game. Won't complain if it's a 0.50/1 either.

 

[timmaayy2323]

Thanks, ya I was thinking cash game, and I have chips from $0.25 to $100.

Always recommend going deep stack (25c/50c) to kick things off - can always decide to do straddles or up the blinds based on how the game is playing - by comparison, it’s always a lot less fun going down in blinds or if a couple players get hurt quickly can ruin an evening.

If people are buying in for $75-$100 and bringing 3 buy ins for the night, .25/50 or .50/1 seems reasonable.

If $75-$100 is expected to last the entire night, .25/.25.

 

[Coyote]

$50 strict for .25/.50 OR .50/.50 (or half of the big stack eventually)
$50-$100 variable for .50/1E or 1E/1E (or one/third of the big stack eventually)
More than that, and you 're prone to robbery or high-tech cheating.

.25/.50 if buy-ins are $75~$100, .25/.25 if that's the total spend per night.

.50/1 with minimum $100 buy ins for us . Pot gets juicy pretty quick
