THE SIZE OF THE BLIND INCREASES The normal case is that each player starts the tournament with 100 big blinds. If the small blind is 5 and the big blind is 10 chips, then each player would start with 1000 chips
(10*100=1000). If you double the blinds from now on, from 5/10 to 10/20 to 20/40, then the blinds are sizable, resulting in a swift, but not chaotic game.
If you want more action, you can drop some of the blind level. You could go from 5/10 to 10/20, then instead of 20/40, skip straight to 40/80. Of course, you can add intermediate steps to slow the game, such as 15/30.
THE DURATION OF THE BLIND LEVELSPractice has shown that, in general, you should have blind levels of no longer than 45 minutes. Otherwise, you are in for a very long night. Likewise, you shouldn't have them for less than 10 minutes. Optimally, you want them at about 20 minutes, which is not too short or too long.
Depending on how comfortable your seats are and how long you want the night to last, you may decide to insert a break every 1-2 hours.
