[edit] Tournament Chip Distribution

Someone should put up the distribution for T10, T100, T1000, and T10000 tournaments. Such as the cost of each blind (small, big), ante, etc. How many chips a person should have, with there being more of the cheaper chips and less of the larger chips, etc. 70.111.224.85 17:03, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Problem is, distribution and blind structures are not universal. There are some tournaments that start at t400, with 5-10 blinds, but by the end of the first hour are already up to 100-200, or 25-50 to 300-600; some tournaments that start with t10k start at 5-10, while others start at 25-25 or 25-50. In addition, there are factors (like costs of chips) that alter distribution. For example, on can start a t2k event with 8x25, 8x100, 2x500 OR 4x25, 4x100, 1x500, 1x1000 OR 10x5, 18x25, 15x100 OR.. (You get the idea.) D.valued 08:27, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bracelets

I would like to know about bracelets. Can someone explain how many there are and what you win them for? Thx 216.0.105.50 01:13, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Normally you win a bracelet for finishing 1st in a tournament that awards a bracelet to the winner. For example, all events in the World Series of Poker and World Championship of Online Poker award a bracelet to the winner. Not all tournaments award bracelets; those that do are usually the major, high profile ones. BTW runners up don't win bracelets, so just one per tournament. Dave6 09:18, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
