Default Re: Rebuy Strategy

Mason,

I understand what you are saying, but I still have a question. As an example, a Stars R&A tournament that starts with 1500 chips. Immediate rebuy to $3k, of course. At the end of the hour you have done well and have 10000 to 15000 chips. You are not a runaway tournament leader, but you are in the top few. As the tournament goes on, the value of the chips goes down. We know that. But the addon is 2000 chips for the same price, so you are getting a better price on the chips which may agree with the discounted value of the chips you already have. Does this not make the addon an acceptable investment to give you a bit more insurance in your stack size going into the second hour when the tournament really starts?
