I agree with Alien, I find re-buys a pain in the arse! Although I spend infinite amounts of time playing poker and betting I still dont have much money at my disposal as of yet to dedicate to any one 'event' or tournament. When entering a rebuy tourny you pretty much have to come prepared with money to buy in at least a couple of times, its likely youll need it.
You will rarely find a single person making a final table without having rebought in a rebuy tournament.
I was in £10 rebuy at a casino a few months back, didnt pick up any hands in the first 30min and thus became short stack. Due to the crapshoot element in the blind structure I was pretty much forced to go all in as soon as I picked up something decent. Twice I was all in with AQ only to be called by two others with shite (one time it was Q6 and J3 - the J3 called for 'value'
) and low and behold a Jack on the flop and there you go into your pcoket again. Freezouts are more my bag.
Gett1ns thoughts are worth baring in mind, that could be a good tactic, waiting until youve got a made hand on the flop before moving in.
But if you like playing poker lottery then re-buys can be a lot of fun! :loon
However it has to be said after the rebuys have ended it calms down a fair bit and if you pick up some big pairs early you could well be laughing as you will get paid off
