i run a 50/1.. avg starting buyin is 150 amoung 15-20 players.. no max.. several hrs in, including multiple rebuys also; the avg stack is more like 300. and when we get down to one table. avg stack has grown to 400-ish.... this is a 50/1.. any 2/5 game i play generally buyin for 500 and am the shortest stack ... any good game NEEDS to play at least one-level bigger than the game is posted at, and at times really should play 2 levels above... advice, never cap a buyin, and unless you are getting a ton of players, raise the min as well, or you will rake the game right off the table in just a short time. i rake 10pct, 4 dollar max and can run for 10-14 hrs every night and no one even notices the rake coming off the table.. but if u only have 10 ppl at 200 a pop, and no rebuys, that is 2K, if u rake just 4bucks, with the blinds 2/5, u should rake 4 bucks almost every hand, times min of 25 hands an hr, that is 100 an hr off the table.. might notice that !
