Default Re: How to handle re-buys

I'll give the second obvious answer of the thread:

Yes, rebuys must be limited in some way, either in number allowed per player, or cut off at the end of a predetermined level. If not, a tournament could continue forever.

Would it be so bad to have people keep buying in for 5,000 chips when you've got 75,000 and blinks are 1K/2K? They're throwing good money after bad. And as you would assume, only the bad/unknowing players do it.

If I buy in for 5k when you have 75k, I have a 6.25% chance to win. If I fail and rebuy for 5k when you have 80k, I have a 5.88% chance to win. And so on, until eventually I win.
