IS it time to stop unlimited re-entry poker tournaments?

[FIERROS]

It's all about money.

unlimited

I agree with the previous note. Not right just shoving all the time . once your out your out unless you can rejoin from a bad beat.

Unlimited re-entry tournaments are bad for anyone who doesn't have the discipline to pay re-entry after always crashing into the same tournament.

 

[mateuszjason]

In my opinion much better is frezout or max 3x re entry.

unlimited re entry is good when yours bankroll is unlimited also. Recreational players dont like them becausie is harder to win when you got less chance to re enter.

 

[Syltan]

It is not worth removing completely re-entry, the guarantees of the tournaments will greatly diminish. Limiting to 2-3 is a good compromise.

Tournaments with multiple entries are designed more to make a profit for those who organize them. Such tournaments are only in the hands of a professional. They hunt for those who are trying to catch good luck. Some players are not particularly lucky, and re-entry compensates for this disadvantage.

3-4 re-entries for tthe greatest majority of tournaments is good , maximum allowed 5 or 6 ONLY when the event is very big and the prizepools also very big ( Sunday Million Special Edition or Sunday Storm Anniversary or The Venom , etc)

Unlimited rentry might destroy someone's bankroll . Ofcourse most of the ''unlimited re-entry'' players , either they are whales , rich , with huge or unlimited bankroll , or they are very good players , who know what they are doing (exploiting the unlimited rentries , so as to play extremelly aggressively , build a very big stack , then do crazy things , go very deep in the tourney or even FT and ofcourse give the other players hilarious bad beats with crazy calls or reshoves lol)

I want limited reentries ,but on the other side I know that these unlimited rentries boost the prizepool or else that would be very small or the tournament might even not exist !!! So , having said these ,also the fact that I rarely re-enter and most players re-enter very few times or only once or none , also the fact that the loose whales or the loose players who play that recklessly , would lose this money either way (if not for the tournaments , maybe in casino slots or wheell , lol) , so yes , can't say I care soooo much ... Everyone is above all responsible for his actions , how he plays , what he spends .

Just play them and hit the rebuy-button as long it feels for you as you are spending pennies. If you go above your brm, just don't do it further!

Re-buys

You can re-buy all day makes no difference too me. This is your money to do with as you will. Capo1014

 

[tourpro99]

I think it's actually an advantage for the better players---let the others rebuy and rebuy while you pony up once!

 

[ADRI7HO]

2-3 re-entry tournaments might have the advantage that you can experiment a bit with the game and if you don’t come in you can still do 1-2 re-entries. However, if you come in, you can continue the tournament with a larger stack.

 

[nghoffman]

I don't mind unlimited re-entries because it boosts the prize pool and lets silly players do silly things. And it's like free money for me when players rebuy near the end of the rebuy period. The only thing I would like to have limited is tourneys with hours upon hours of late registration.

 

[aleomar86]

I do not see bad re-entry tournaments, if with unlimited re-entry. In the long run it will favor the big players, and give less opportunities to the rest.

 

[martinlgs]

no .. there are them for everyone and every taste

Good article:
https://www.cardschat.com/news/reentry-poker-tournaments-opinion-86021

I .... agree, only because "some" have had issues in the past with getting to a Tournament "late" and... oh ... "that really sucks".

Ummmm.... hrmmm.... this is a hot-topic among players that are getting to things but don't have the "ability or monetary means" to get to it like one of the "elite" which is to say, "those with money".

Sad but True.

Unlimited entry tournaments don't really interest me, I think time is an important factor here. I do not sit down to play tournaments with a very distant ending because the entries are unlimited. Also in these tournaments the essence of Poker is lost and it becomes more of a game of luck or bingo.

 

[elchonga]

Personally, I don't like these tournaments because it distorts the game a bit, but if there are people who play them, I don't see any reason why they don't exist.Everyone
can choose the tournaments and page where they want to play them.

 

[JOSEALBERTV]

I agree with ending with unlimited innings, the truth is that seeing someone destroy your AA, KK etc, with a 63, throwing all their chips preflop, is something absurd, unfortunately I am not as lucky as they have it and generally they are more times I lose to these players than times I won with premium hands, I'm sure things would change if we eliminated unlimited re-entries

 

[middle73]

Completely agree with Daniel, unlimited Re-entry tournaments must end

+1 . yes of course
