Okay. I've been trying to play the rebuy tournaments on UB, the ones that have usually had an overlay like the $5k $1 entry one. I think I need some assistance though figuring out the math of it all.
If you enter a rebuy tournament, how much should you reasonably spend? It's a $1 entry fee, or the $2 or $5 on UB, how many rebuys is sufficient?
I see people rebuying 10-15 times, it makes me wonder, how do they expect to get their money back out of it? If you're doing all this rebuying the chips you had are going to someone, so every time you rebuy you're getting in at more and more of an overall disadvantage.
I'm in one now on UB, the $1 one. It's paying out 110 places but in order to get, let's say, $10 you have to end up in the top 80. It just doesn't seem +EV to buyin all those times.
Let me know what you think or what the "book" on this is, if there is a book on rebuys.
