Just won this tourney out of 125 people. Also got fifth out of 165 in a $1rebuy tourney, playing both at the same time. :)

Congrats! Absolute is the site I play at. Rebuys are pretty soft there.

Hmmm... not quite sure what this means....I've played the $1 rebuys on Absolute before.... got put at a donk-fest table where around 3/4s of the players called every hand to the river or All-in on 27 soooooted...watched about 30 rebuys in 5 minutes....meanwhile I just kept bleeding blinds...absolute madness

That's the type of table you want. And the blinds at that point aren't that bad. You just wait for your hand and BAM! take out three stacks. If you do miss out to that one stupid ass hand, well, it is a rebuy. You just wait for the next killer opportunity.

Stefanicov hit the nail on the head...handful good hands..3 or 4 bad beats...the rest was frustrating cause I didn't get anything to "go for the throat" with...draws were impossible because SOMEONE would donk all in...and no bankroll to support multiple, multiple rebuys

I would make a point pete tht if you cant multi rebuy do you really want to be playing a rebuy where you may have to rebuy 6 times b4 the hnds hit and you build your stack

LOL...no I DIDN'T want to do it....I kinda "wandered into the buzzsaw" :eek: without realizing that it was a rebuy tourney...I wanted a $1 multi-table period.... NOT one with rebuys... LOL....I'll have to try again sometime when I have $$$ there :D

Thanks, the rebuy was a huge donk fest the first hour. Kinda hung out and only play AA KK and AKs. Then after the rebuy period I opened up, all the donks that kept rebuying were afraid of me. Went out with KK against runner runner flush draw. Why not call a huge overbet to the pot with q 4 sooted with only one of your suit on the flop. lol oh well. The five dollar tourney was a lot better, although there were still a bunch of donks at first. Overcame a 5-1 dog in chip lead to win the game.

Forgot to mention I rebought at the beginning of the game and then did a double add on but that was it. And I kept telling the donks to rebuy because I wanted to win more money. They laughed, but now so am I. :)
