Default Monday Night Rebuy

Just to let you know that I won't be playing in any of these again after some of the insane bets that were made....not just against me...but if I want to play Bingo I will enter a freeroll.

Yes it's a rebuy but there are limits to the insanity.

Default sry to hear that.....

But if you think people are playing "crazy" or "stupid" it should be fairly easy to adjust your play to capitalize on their leaks-

This doesnt mean getting 66 in with 100 plus bbs against 2 tight players in early position(you had like 30% equity if you put them on just over cards- if just one of them had an over pair you would be a 5-1 dog)

But if you dont want to adjust your play- dont play the rebuys

Poker should be fun and if you arnt having any in rebuys - there are other games

Or you could just sit out for the first hr, and you probably wont miss much in terms of chips

I would venture that at one time or another everyone(prob not meow) experienced some frustration with rebuys, but they learn to adapt

The rebuys provide an excellent opportunity to work on your deep stack game

I hope to see you in the rebuys

gl at the tables,

t

Glad to see I'm not the only one who thought the same...and yes I was the one who brought up the Bingo issue.

Tee is absolutely correct - adapt or die - play a few more and you get used to it - even learn to exploit it. There is no one correct way to play at all times.

Default come on

There is nothing wrong with small amount rebuys! No one said you have to call all the insane betting just a few till rebuys are done then do yuor damage.

SOmetimes these $1 rebuys are like an all in or fold tourney, which can be alot of fun. I just try to sit back and pick my spots much like you do in a normal tourney, sometimes you get in with the best and it doesnt work out, or the other way around your in with the worst and u get lucky. Thats what makes poker fun to me. Good luck
