No Limit Holdem Home Games
Hello,
I have a problem. I don’t know what would be the small and big blind structure for no limit holdem home games. Say buy ins are $5 for $500 in chips; $10 for $1,000 in chips; $15 for $1,500 in chips; $20 for $2,000 in chips; $25 for $2,500 in chips. For occasional games, $50 for $5,000 or $100 for $10,000 in chips.
Another thing, for such kind of game I’ve described, how will the ante appear?
Thanks in advance!
Best,
Kelvin
Kelvin,
I would recommend using a doubling blind structure for your home games. Start at a particular blind level, such as 25-50 and then double the blinds every level. Level 2 would be 50-100, level 3 would be 100-200, and so on. You will want to start with a low blind level for the lower buy-ins but the same concept applies.
For most home game tournaments, I would not recommend using antes. A doubling blind structure should suffice.
