Heads Up Tournament

A member of the group brought up the idea of having a Heads-up Tournament. 8, 16, or 32 players would be the optimum number, we could work with other numbers, however, if need be (12 or 24 would end up being a 3 person round robin style event for 1st place)

At this point, seeds would have to be randomly drawn to match players. Buy-in for the inaugural event would be between $10 ond $20 most likely since it's a new format. With increased interest the buy-in could be higher.

Comments welcome, guys,

The original plan would call for blinds being raised every 10 minutes. Blinds would start at $25/$50 with $2500 in chips. Your 5th level of blinds would be $150/$300, the effective end of the match.

Each successive match would see an effective carry over for the winners chips, in other words, start with $5,000 for the 2nd match and $10,000 for the final match. Even the final match with $10,000 chips, the effective end blind level would be $1,000/$2,000 or 11th level.

As anyone who's played heads up though, we all know that really no heads up match is going to last very long. Long heads up matches are few and far between and require the perfect mix of 2 'rock' type players.
