Strategy for 60p roulette rebuy

edited April 2011 in The Poker Clinic
after 20 + rebuys the other night and not getting to the button quick enough i lost out

i played it again tonight and bought in for 36  rebuys even though the leader was on 200k + , but have now realised its about playing for 2nd or 3rd place and once you decide to go down the rebuy route you have to stick to it for an hour depending on how many players are left as most players are  practically rebuying on every hand,  due to blind levels being so high

has anyone had experience with these and what is the best strategy to play when your down to last 3-5 players?

although I had 36 rebuys I managed to get £18 for 3rd but it was a bit of a lottery at the end and i could have quite easily got nothing in 4th or £28 for 2nd dependind on where the button is on the brk (which was supposed to be after 1 hour but for some reason was 1 hour and 2 minutes

Any tips and advice for these crazy games plz?

    Why does it matter where the button is on the break? (stupid question maybe)

    My advice would be to do a lot of folding saving on rebuys, esp in the early stages seen as doubling up wont really matter seen as you'll be all-in cos of the blinds

    My tip is don't play them as they are daft.

    I watched one once where it was the cash bubble and they were all re buying for about 40mins!

    was the same last night and i presume in most of these - the prize money starts off at about 2-3 quid for 3rd and by the brk its about 20 quid

    just won my 1st one for £29 with 1 rebuy - This one didnt reach the brk but its amazing how many times times ppl rebuy even when I had 180k and the other 2 kept rebuying for 1500 chips

    In these games you are laughing if you get a massive chip lead and you get 2 or 3 guys rebuying for ages, as it boosts the prize when you win!
