What's the deal with rebuy tournaments? Is there a chance to win big?
Is it
any different from a regular Texas holdem tournament?
It is possible to win big in a Texas
holdem rebuy tournament. To understand how to win big in a rebuy
tournament,
it is essential to examine the structure of the rebuy. For example, say
a regular
tournament has a $1,000 buy-in. In this scenario, let's say 1000 players
enter.
This would put the prize pool at $100,000, of which 100 players would
cash out.
Now, in a rebuy tournament with the same amount of players, the prize
pool will
begin at $100,000, but due to rebuys, it will increase dramatically.
Hypothetically,
if 1000 players each re-bought three times, the prize pool will increase
from
$100,000 to $400,000. That's a significant increase. The best way to
take advantage
of winning big in a rebuy is obviously to last until the end.
There are two ways to win big in a rebuy. One, spend the least amount of
money
and last in the tournament. Playing a tight game can do this. To last in
rebuy
texas
holdem
tournaments without coughing up more dough, you have to be patient
and let
the aggressive players go batty and then take advantage of their
aggressiveness.
In other words, only play monster hands. It shouldn't take long to see
who the
aggressive players are. By reading the other players, you can use a
conservative
strategy to increase your chip stack and last in the rebuy tournament.
While
the prize pool increases, and you're still in the event on the least
amount
of rebuys, you're already getting better odds for your money. However,
playing
tight in a rebuy tournament is risky because the very nature of a rebuy
tournament
is to be aggressive.
The other way to win big in a rebuy is to keep rebuying. If you're not
afraid
to take chances, and you have the bankroll to back you up, you can last.
The
more chances you take, the more chances you have to increase your chip
stack.
However, be aware that it might cost you. Still, it is a comforting
feeling
to have a do-over in a no-limit tournament. That's what a rebuy
basically is,
a do-over. With an unlimited number of do-overs, there is a great chance
of
winning big in a rebuy tournament.
