I always line up with 3 buy ins - the first entry, one rebuy, and an add on. I certainly never go crazy and use as many as 10 buy ins - I prefer to play the other side of the equation and take advantage of those who do.



im the same here, although i rebuy striaght away and if i go out, im out. i personally dont think its worth multiple buy ins online as rebuy tournaments tend to be so top heavy prize structure wise. its a formula that has worked for me as other players bump up the prize pool so much. Especially in satelites for example into the sunday million it works a treat ;D

came 2nd in a £10 rebuy last night at my local casino for £200

1 buy in and 1 add on was all that was required - in fact the add on probably wasnt but when everyone else buys an double up add on (3000 instead of 1500) im not gonna let the others catch up

... generally I would run with the idea of budget for 3 times the buy-in ... money to be made at this price.

I played in an amusing re-buy qualifier yesterday for the $11k g"tee on Betfair ...

Betfair managed to find a whole 5 runners for their $15 re-buy for two $109 g"teed seats ... so it should have been a value sit and wait for the freezeout ...

First two hands I have KK ... busted both times ... so three buy-ins by hand three ... the cards kept coming and prescedent set we never made it to the freezeout period with me qualifying for $46.50 ... (32nd from 82 in the actual event)

Generally for more sensibly run ans structrued re-buys playing decent starting hands can create a decent stack at reasonable cost.

If there are people trying to pump the pot ... rub your hands ... wait for the cards and enjoy.
