How to restart game?
« on: March 06, 2009, 11:09:54 AM »
Hi there, I have a game which I spent a while setting up to make it ready to use on a certain night.
Now when I load the game it is on round 3, with x number of buy ins, I want to restart the game back to round 1 and allow me to enter the number of buy - ins again but cannot find any sort of restart button.
Please can you help me?

Also, I am arranging a 6 seater game with 2000 starting stacks, I am hoping for my tourny to last 3 to 4, do you think my blind levels are appropriate?

Thankyou for your help in advance it is greatly appreciated!

Don't know if it matters for the first one, but when you do this you'll want to make sure you save the tournament as a new file after you reset it - you don't want to lose the results from the a previous tournament.

According to conventional wisdom, your tournament should end roughly around the time the BB equals the starting chips.  Looks like that will be around round 10 for your schedule, which is right around the 3 hour mark...

Thanks for your reply. I think I'm going to add 1k chips to every stack making for a slightly longer tourny, but it still shouldn't be too long.
With 3k starting stacks I think the structure will be perfect :-)

Thanks again for all your help

If you get pushed for time towards the end of the tourney, you can always shorten the levels to 15 mins while adding another level or two. The increased blinds will force more action.

One thing I would definitely do, is swap levels 10 and 11 around. (You've got 1500/3k then 1k/2k)
