I want to take some blind structures from pokerstars for use in a live tournament. Is there a good ratio between online and live level times? I've seen on this and other forums that 3:1 or 4:1 are common ratios.

I want to get some good structures for a live 3-man SNG, in deep stack, regular, turbo, and hyper-turbo. So either suggested level times/structures and/or a general ratio would be appreciated.

you need to make the blind levels three times longer if you want close to the same amount of play per level. this is just my opionion

Thanks. That's what I'd heard elsewhere too. So for hyper-turbo, you'd say 9 minute levels (3x3), or for regular 45 minute levels (3x15)?

I could really use some answers here please.

Agree, 3 or 4 times longer would be the standard when you shift online structure to live structure.
