Just a quick queston. Why are the rebuys and add ons not added to the prizepool for this tournament? On this occassion the rebuys and add ons amounted to £10.50. But, i have seen times where they have exceeded £20.

    whenever I have beenin these freebuys and they have exceeded the guarantee in rebuys it was added to the prize pool, I assume it was an error in the set up, I doubt they would not add it to the pool deliberately.

    The real question is why rebuy? I've seen players rebuy constantly to the point where they need to win it to break even...crazy!

    there is a £20 Gte, if the rebuys and addons exceed the £20 it is added to the prizepool eg if there are a total of £30 rebuys and addons the prizepool is £30.

    if the rebuys & addons total £10 then the £20 is the prizepool, to add them all on to the prizepool would be like Sky Poker giving a double freeroll ..... this is the same across all tournaments

    I have screen shots of one where the rebuys and add ons exceeded £20 but the prizepool stayed at £20. I don't understand why people rebuy in a £20 freeroll. Seems ridiculous to me,

     17 rebuys @ .50p = £8.50
      4 add ons @ .50p= £2.00

    Total = £10.50 well short of gtd.

    not a freeroll then the £20 should already be accounted for, any addon or rebuys should be added to prize pool but hey thats just my thinking.

    this

     if it were £20 added the prizepool would be £30.50 ..... however as it is guaranteed, and. the rebuys ande addons are less than the guarantee it just means Sky Poker are giving away slightly less
