Tournament rules

[oleface]

Hello everbody, thanks for having me,

I got in a little argument with some friends about poker rules:
1.They say that rebuys dont count as entries and therefore have no influence on number paid places. I think that is wrong, an entry is an entry.
2.They introduce an add on at the end of the rebuy period with 3 times the starting stack for the same money. I say that is wrong, because it creates an inflation. They say thats normal. Can you have add ons in a Tournament?
3.Blinds are doubling instead of rising with every level...

1. Re-entrances affect the number of seats. Except for tournaments where the number of prizes can be clearly fixed (for example, in some satellites a certain number of tickets are raffled off and only).
2. Usually the size of the added stack is proportional to the amount spent on the purchase. If it is otherwise, then it is really not done correctly.
3. the blinds can grow as you like, fast or slow ... Different tournaments have a different structure of the blind, this is normal.
