A Beginner's Guide To Re-Buy Tournaments (per request)

Re-buy tournaments are a different animal than your average multi-table tourney. In a re-buy, you can expect to see people getting all their money in early trying to double up quickly. Some folks will buy in immediately to give them double the starting stack, while others will simply shove with anything with their initial buy-in.
The DADI should prove to be a little tighter than your average re-buy tourney, but you will still see a lot of shoving going on early with less than premium hands, probably about the top 15 starting hands for the most part. Definitely hold your hammer dropping until after the break, unless you just want to help build the prize pool.
The goal in the first hour is to get to about 5 or 6 times the initial chip count.......and yes, take the add on. Plan on budgeting enough for a couple of re-buys and an add on. In my opinion, any more than that is not advisable.
Don't forget to switch gears after the break and get in to the normal middle stages of a big multi. Best of luck to everyone in the DADI Wednesday. I hope to see you there.
