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.

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
