We did look over the structure and 1.5k chips with 10 minute blinds seemed like the best option. Home Games have a lot of extra levels - here's a screenshot:
With 20 runners, and 1.5k chips each, that's 30k chips in play. Heads up will normally end when each person has about 15-20bb, we'll call it 15bb to be safe, which means the BB must be 1k so 30bb in play. That is level 17 or 170 minutes, or just under 3 hours. With 30 runners and 1.5k chips each - 45k chips in play, 1.5kbb or ~3.5 hours.
Running for 3.5 hours for UK players means starting at 7.30pm and finishing at 11pm, and given plenty of people will have work early on Monday I don't want it going much later than that. At the moment it looks like we were being optimistic to expect 30 people, although the newsletter going out in the next couple of days might increase attendance, and if turnout is regularly 15-20 people we'll increase the stacks a bit.
Week 2 is a 5k starting stack with 5 minute blinds so we'll see which one people prefer or maybe find something in the middle.
