The home games I play in out here are a different structure than I've played before. The starting chip count is 2500 (10x100 20x50 20x25) and the blinds go up whenever anyone is knocked out. The blind structure is fairly odd as well,
25/50
50/100
75/150
100/200
125/250
150/300 and so on, no antes are added.
Sometimes we allow rebuys until 2200, if this occurs the games actually finish much faster as the guys I play against will rebuy even if the blinds are at 200/400 or I've even seen someone rebuy at 300/600.
The first few times I played this structure I couldn't stand it, but as I've gotten used to it, the levels are lengthy and it allows for a good player to consistently (week after week) chip up until the blinds are higher and start putting pressure on the short stacks.
