have a good show anna.
it's great to see dylan and wayne as guests again too.
Rebuy Tournies
Rebuy tournaments are definitely profitable if you know how to play them correctly and limit the number of rebuys you allow yourself. Some of the small rebuys on Sky can literally see the prizepool doubled by some 'lesser skilled' players who put themself in a position where they need to come 2nd just to break even
It's definitely important before just automatically adding-on to consider what difference it's gonna make to your stack. If it will take you from 9BB to 11BB, it's just not worth it as you'll still just be shoving/folding and isn't gonna really change your chances at all. But if the add-on can take you from 14BB - 20BB, then it's much more worth it, and can give you a bit more wiggle room in terms of bullying shorter stacks etc.
Interested to hear Wayne and Dylan's thoughts on rebuys... I personally don't play them often because although I think there's alot of value, it's just even more high variance than standard MTTs and standard MTTs are high enough variance for me!
I'm looking forward to seeing a lot tonight. I'll rail the end of vegas after watching the updates with you tonight and playing at the same time. Who say its only women who can multi-task hey, Anna?(god knows how they keep their nerve as i was nervous just watching last time!)
I'm certainly looking forward to Tikay's mentoring. Do the panel know that at a charity auction, a days poker mentoring with Tikay went for £3000 for Great Ormond Street Hospital? He may be a little red-faced to acknowledge(or is that the burning he got on holiday, i ask!) but respect is due, sir. The winner is getting a great prize.
A question for Wayne and all the other panellists.......
Your alias is Glitterbabe. How did that come about? Do you feel that a female name /avatar makes other players treat you differently?
All the best...Steve aka profman15
PS Has anyone handed in your lens yet, Anna? Next time put your camera bag on the floor and change lenses by using the bag as a 'table top'. As my mother said to me..."let that be a lesson to you!"
PPS That programme where Carlo analysed your play v TommyD and co is one of my favourites. The rewind button got some stick on my Sky control, i can tell you. I think he needed to lie down in a darkened room afterwards as he was all 'giggled' out!!! I certainly was....great fun though, and that should be the aim of the game.
Have a Good Show Anna, Tikay, Dylan & Wayne, What a Great Line up,
My Question for the Panel is reguarding Rebuy Statedgy
Q. Is it better to rebuy once we have lost 10 or 20 chips so as to have an advantage or should we wait, also after 1 hour if we have loads of chips & say in top 5 do we still buy an add on
Tikay, it's Pavlov's Dogs. You're thinking of Schrodinger's cat.
