very basic rebuy question
I was playing a $10+1 rebuys + add-on tournament on pstars last night, and I want to make sure I'm understanding this correctly. Do they only take the $1 rake on your initial buyin, and then the full $10 you pay for each rebuy, add-on goes into the prize pool? Because if so I plan on playing a lot more of those, such a better deal than regular tourneys.

Eh 10% is standard not really a ripoff. Now the 5+1 SNGs on Party, however... And live tourneys usually rake more than 10 percent. [/ QUOTE ] Live tourneys have to pay for a dealer for every table... I don't believe you can compare live to online...

Re: very basic rebuy question
It may not be a rip-off, but it's certainly a better deal to only pay $1 rake every time on a tournament I probably average $50+ in buyins.
I've always assumed this reason is why the 109r is so popular among the HSMTT regulars.

Re: very basic rebuy question
Yeah that's really all I'm saying. I can't consistently say the 10% rake is a ripoff since I'll willingly pay it as long as a better offer isn't available, and the rebuys are only offered at specifically scheduled times. But less rake = good.

I always assumed the main reason pros love rebuys is that a lot of people don't know how to play them. Anyway I agree that less rake is good, just saying 10% is pretty standard so the term "ripoff" doesn't really fit.
