Confussion about blinds in tournament play

[pokerrocker]

You have to decide two things regarding the blinds: 1) the size of the blinds and 2) the frequency with which you will raise them. A typical schedule for a tournament of 14 to 16 players using 800 chips would be:

* $ 10 - $ 20
* $ 20 - $ 40
* $ 30 - $ 60
* $ 50 - $ 100
* $ 75 - $ 150
* $ 100 - $ 200
* $ 150 - $ 300
* $ 200 - $ 400
* $ 300 - $ 600
* $ 400 - $ 800
* $ 500 - $1000
* $ 600 - $1200
* $ 700 - $1400
* $ 800 - $1600
* $1000 - $2000
