I was playing in the PS 50 K gauranteed all this tourney fun has me thinking.. what is the correct way to play a rebuy.
Lets assume it costs $2 +0.25 for your first 1500 chips.
If you have 1500 chips or lower you can rebuy for another $2
(so, if you like you can just buy in with a double stack)
unlimited rebuys up until the first break
at the first break, you can add on 2000 chips for $2
Lets also assume that most players buy a single stack, and a good number of them are rebuying.
So,
my questions
1) Should I buy in with a double stack
2) if I am stacked should I rebuy (1 or 2 stacks)
3) If I cop a hit (down to say 500 chips) should I rebuy then, or try to double up as a short stack
4) Should I open my shoving range in the rebuy period
5) when should I add on (ie, always, only when short stacked, only when avereage stacked)
?
There seems to be a lot of money being pumped into these tourneys by poor players who just keep rebuying (one guy at my table last night was playing absolutely terribly, and rebought at least 5 times, before losing about 5 hands after the rebuy period ended)
this = good money to be made....
I ended up taking nineteenth and won about 150 minus 6.60 buyin
What do you guys think?
Has anyone written about this?
