I'm thinking about playing my first rebuy tournament one night this week, when I'm available. The lowest one I see on the two sites I play on, PokerStars and PartyPoker, seems to be the $3 rebuy on Stars, run nightly at 8:15 PM.
I know it varies with the aggressiveness of the player but how much money do you guys usually spend on this tournament with typical rebuys and add-ons? I'm working with about a $1,000 bankroll because I had to cash out $1000 for a Spring Break trip. Thanks guys. |

I think the general rule is to expect to spend about 5-7x the buy in amount.

So the consensus is to wait and build up my bankroll before I experiement with one of these? Anybody have any good articles about these tournies?
I should be pushing any suited connectors if theres 2-3 people all in in front of me with the rebuy period? I have to play like a lunatic I guess. |

$3 rebuy bankroll is about $1000 if you're not going to play like me or Twisted. It's also very fishy.

[/ QUOTE ] I've final tabled it twice, both times i had 5k after addon. Cybrpunk FT'd it this week with 5k after addon too. If you can play poker well, you don't need a big stack to do well, i just prefer it. Personally i push anything semi decent, and if there is several people already allin, and i don't have a big stack, there are rarely any cards i would fold. There is nothing wrong with rebuying and playing it like a freezeout with 3k starting stacks, and keeping an eye on who the maniacs are, and making sure you have a reasonably tight range generally, but against someone like me/gobbo, your calling range can be a lot looser, especially when we are pushing every hand. |

I play this alot and I don't try the maniacal rebuy strategy. I usually spend 9-21 dollars. Last Saturday i won this tourney and I only invested 9 dollars and i had a 8,000 stack after rebuy and add-on; so, I don't really think it's neccessary to have alot of chips after rebuy. Hey, but that's just me. Bobbo and TwistedEcho are much better than i am
