Chaos rules:
Chaos hold'em is played like a normal tournament, starting with the structure of a regular No-Limit Hold'em tournament.
Before the players post blinds and antes for the hand, the dealer rolls a d100 (can be done with two ten sided dice) and some additional effect is added to the game for this hand, after consulting the table below. Most effects will only last for the hand being played. To keep the game moving, the cutoff (or an eliminated player) will roll the dice and read the result while the dealer deals.
If NEW GAME is rolled, then players then roll a d10 and consult the NEW GAME section. The New games is played for a single hand, using the adjust blinds, limits and/or antes listed below.
The JACKPOT is a common pool of chips added to by each table in play. (ie. There's only one jackpot in play for the whole tournament.) The tournament can end with chips still left in the jackpot.
If any rule causes you to bust, before the cards are dealt, you get one SB. If a rule causes you to bust after the hand has finished, you also get one SB.

For you, more like $75.
There will be optional prop betting on the NCAA games, optional at $10/GAME. Will probably pick 4 games.
Any game with antes, if the sb/5 is less than the smallest chip in play, then the dealer will post a button ante for everyone.
