I'd say about 250 is average, definitely gets over 200 and I can't recall ever seeing as many as 300. It's not my favorite tourney, you get less starting chips than the Tues/Wed nite tourneys (6000 on Sat., 7500 on Tues/Wed) and the structure is just about the same. Saturday does go to 30 min levels later on, but the jumps in the blinds are still too large and it just turns into "shove and pray" poker like all Talking Stick tourneys.
Looks like they might have finally gotten rid of the stupid "Keno" $5 chip addon? It's not mentioned on the structure sheet on the website, they only list the standard $10 "dealer toke". They still might have it, since I recall starting chips were always 6500. With just a single $10 addon, it's a $125+$35 which is (hard to believe) an even worse rake than the $115+$25 Tues/Wed. If the Keno addon is still done, then it becomes an abysmal, laughable, unbeatable $125+$40 (24%). Please, please, please... I beg our inept, idiotic government to bring back online poker with massive fields, standard 10% rake and no need to tip any dealers. sigh
