Hey guys!

Well tomorrow night there's a £20+£2 Rebuy at walsall... usually a mental tournament with rebuys left right and center.. played in it before and got decimated by the aggressivness!

BUT

I miss live poker so damn much I have to play lol! my plan is to tkae £60


£20 to sit down
£20 for one rebuy
£20 for addon

POSSIBLY use the addon for a 2nd rebuy but then not adding on? Either that or sticking the £20 on roulette doing my red/black routine lol!

Either way.. I know you gotta be loose in a rebuy otherwise u'r gna be bad beat left right and center, but even so, i need quick fire short tips for beating this silly rebuy thing!

Actually, don't play loose.. its bad to play loose. Don't play super tight either.. but if you're bringing 60$ (or pounds) than you can mess up twice

I just played in a 30$ buy-in 10$ unlimited rebuys up tot he break 20$ add-on. 33 entrants, 20something rebuys, and 28 addons. I finished 6th and was the first one in the money. I didn't rebuy OR add-on. I played only SLIGHTLY tighter than others.

Value bets are mandatory, and semi-bluffing is devalued durring the rebuy period, and after the rebuy period, its reversed. hands like AJo are to be played hard preflop and if you flop top pair... It tends to tighten up significantly after the break, now is your time to play looser and steal pots. Hope that has helped some.

People are going to be pushing on top pair, so call immidiately with an over-pair. Say you hold 9s9c and the flop is

8c4d2h and you bet 150 on the flop...you're reraised all in...call immidiately. Its likely you're against A8 or Q8 or something similar.

Had AK suited.. 4000 (average) with blinds 300/600. I raise pot first to act. Fish calls. Button raises pot. I call all in. So does Fish.

Me: AK suited clubs
Fish: A7 Off
Button: AQ off

Flop 572 (one club)
Turn T(club)
River 7hearts

Couldn't believe it... gutted

AT LEAST YOU ENTERED THE HAND WITH THE BEST HAND< YOU CANT BE UPSET FOR LOOSING WHEN YOU DIDNT MAKE A MISTAKE,

I have a tourney on tonight, i have played in the first 2, and they are ridiculous, a lucky dip has more skill than these card nights, but it will be a great booze up so here goes nothing, IM ALL IN 7 4 off LOL
