How is the ante going to work?
Seems to say ante 25 bring in 25-50 level 50-100 etc. Is it one ante posted by a revolving button rather than all 8 players?

Well I"ve bought a seat but the structure Richard has confirmed might make it an interesting situation! :)
So 8 players all post 25 so 200 in pot. Low card brings in theres 225 in pot.. anyone not got odds to call?

Ahhh...you have noted the beauty of Stud..it"s not about the odds like that, seriously.
Stud is all about not chasing even though you might think you have the odds. It"s about seeing what cards have already gone and NOT calling that single bet on the end even though your odds might be great.
Far too many people chase their supposed draws in Stud without paying attention to what others might have. Are you really chasing your gutshot straight even though you have only a 5% chance of hitting when the other guy is showing 3 or 4 cards to a flush?
KarmaDope:
Either way, if we"re all posting antes every hand, by the third level enjoy the fun of having 10 big bets.
Please, Tighty, make it 6k, so we get some play in the game.

You beat me to it....
Please can I have Redsimon on my table ??
KTHX
redsimon:
No other Stud Tourny I have played, including WSOP, Orleans Open, Austrian Masters etc has such a ante heavy structure.
Guess the successful (26 runners, including those famous Norweigans Tony Kendall, Sam Trickett and Chinese Frankie) 2008 Norweigan structure must not have caught on ???
I will of course adjust, but can"t see this ending well :D
