Thoughts Regarding the Maniac Rebuy Strategy

[LearnedfromTV]

SO I just tried this in the 3r. $75 later, my computer freezes, I miss the addon, start the second hour with 3000. Push KT after some limpers, QT calls, flop Q.

First hour I lost every time I was a favorite and every time but one that I wasn't.

I am not, it seems, gobboboy.

No you are not.
There is only one Gobboboy...all the rest of us simply walk in his shadow.

using this strategy do you only rebuy when you loose all of your chips, or is it every time you go allin?

I seem to recall hearing some sites allowed you to rebuy when you are all in allowing you to build up your stack. Is this true?

[$_DEADSEXE_$]

you rebuy whenever you are able to...below 1500 or after you are busted

[golfcchs]

Does it have to be at the end of a hand? Or can you do it when ever you are below the starting amount even if it is in the middle of a hand?

[LearnedfromTV]

Supposedly you could (or still can) do it anytime your chips are in the middle (even if no one calls) but I couldn't get that to work, so these were all, push, lose, double rebuy, post, lose, double rebuy...

(you can go from 0 to 1500 to 3000, but couldn't rebuy if you had 1501)

You might be playing too much like a maniac. (I'm assuming you are experimenting.)

If you are pushing a lot and getting called a lot, you could probably push less often with more premium hands. If the table is already loose and there are already maniacs there, no need to spend $70 on a $3+R.

Since being sold by Gobboboy on the maniac rebuy strategy my results in the rebuy tournaments have plumetted. Everyone who uses this strategy should stop immediately as it clearly doesn't work. I have proven this through an extensive testing period by playing in these for the last week and half almost every day. I blew through my whole $89 bankroll in just two tournaments and Gobboboy had to offer to stake me in return for a 250% share of myself, which I gave him freely since he says I can become a winning player but he says I have to learn to lose first. He's so great. I'm great at losing tournaments. I guess maybe I should make a second account and play that too so I have a better shot at winning.

I hope Gobbo has some more money for me.....
