Hi pals,
I would like to know why there are different buyins for same prize pool tourneys at 888? For example there is a tourney known as $4000 pacific swordfish, buyins- $30 with rebuys and player limit 1500.
There is another tourney known as $4000 twister, buyins- $55, no rebuys and player limit 1000.

The basic difference I have found - the rebuys tourney prize pool increases over time.

But I could not understand why to pay more say $25 to play in same prize pool tourney??

Any explanation or logic?? Or am I missing something??

Less players mean games end quicker, which means better $/hour.

Also, less players mean smaller field to get through. Smaller field also means less payouts, which means top 3 payouts will be a lot bigger for a 1K field vs a 1.5K field.

Smaller field,s, better odds. Tournament selection is very important if your bankroll can afford it imo.
