About to start playing this live tourney weekly again.
Its pretty much the best tournament I can find around me.
Its at One Eyed Jacks in Sarasota, FL.
$100 + 10 Buy in.
25k Starting stack
25 Min blinds:
50/100
100/200
150/300
200/400 25
300/600 50
400/800 50 etc...

Let me know what you think of it. If your in FL and know of any decent tourneys post them up.
Thanks

If you are rolled for it, sounds ok to me. A bit fast (FR I assume) but I dont play much live and the stacks start deep enough so it may be more standard (or even better) than a lot. Whats the pay out structure look like?

I get to Naples every year or so, but always a family visit so due to time and logistics havent yet played anywhere in Fla.

A few members here are in Fla. so you may want to post a "Where are the good tourneys in FLA" in the Poker Room section.

Turbo... looks like chip leader will have 10BB on final table. winning will prob take a good run of cards, hands holding up

i played the funniest hand of my life in FL.
the board had like 1 spade and this girl called an all in bet and said she was chasing a flush?
i laughed for days.

She was probably chasing the 2 diamonds on the board.

Depends a bit on the "etc", since it's big jumps at later levels that can hurt the most. But for a tournament in that price range, I think you'll be hard pressed to do better than 250BB starting stacks and 25 minute levels.

Love the starting stack of 25k for only $110 buy in sounds like a fun one, I would say take your time early, pick your spots, tthen aggro up as the levels advance
