sometimes it can be good to have another opportunity, but it's better to keep the ranger and the more profitable plays

I prefer tournaments with no rebuys or addons. One rebuy is not bad though.

Rebuys and addons are a great opportunity to get more knockouts from weak opponents and increase the prize pool.

I don't like rebuys and addons and late registrations.
But they have more prize money and it captivates.

Its neat when you cash one o those tourneys as the ROI tends to to be bit larger.

It can be a lot of fun when you have a manic going all in every hand :D

I think the same form.

I prefer tournaments freezout, I think this more just and the person play more technicaly, because if to play wrong, don’t have other chance.

Cheesy…

I don’t like rebuys/add-ons. These parameters encourage those ‘all-in-anytime’ players to butcher an otherwise meaningful game. And add-ons… encourage those scared players to hang on … lol… until they can pay to chip up…. Ridiculous garbage all the way around.

Freeze out is the best ! That way somebody with money has the same chance as someone who doesn't have that much money..
There is a story (truth) how some players rebuy in tournament few times and the strategy goes that way.... rebuy- double up - play.... not fair vs. someone who can buy once...
Again, maybe I'm wrong....

Most likely, this is a game with a small buy-in. I would prefer not to enter such a tournament at all. I'll avoid it if possible.

That's not poker. But I don't disagree or agree with it. It's just something that happens in some of the poker games, the online alternative.

rebuy addon

You don't have to think about rebuys and addons, they either exist or they don't!!!)) Although, in fact, rebuys and addons make the game more comfortable for players who can afford to make them!!

I do not play rebuy tournaments, I prefer freezeout tournaments. But if players want to play rebuy tournaments, of course it´s ok, if they have the bankroll. It is just not for me.

I think these options are specifically designed for recreational players. I saw how one player made so many rebuys that he needed to take 1-2 place in the tournament to cover them.

I agree with that, and it implies their existance can help stronger players, if the rebuys and add ons go into the prize pool. So I favor them. I especially like the idea of freerolls with rebuys and add ons.

I don't like them one bit!

If i end up entering a tourny with R & A's, i breath a sigh of relief when it gets to finally running and that stuff's over!!

I prefer entering tournaments without them.

Changes the game too much. Not a level playing field anymore. R&A's are pure marketing strategies..

I don't like rebuy tournaments, I can accept some with a rebuy, but unlimited definitely not. I think you lose concepts of strategy versus purchasing power

i love rebuy and ad- on games becuase of the overlay, people buy in for the game and just quits before reaching the add-on time means bigger prize pool with lesser player

I don't like multiple add-ons. They change the situation too much and not according to merit.
