Default Re: First Trip to Trump Indy

The Trump tournaments are either liked or hated by people. For $100 ($85 + $15) you start with T400 and can rebuy ($40) anytime during the first hour as long as you are under T400. If you bust, you can do a double rebuy where $80 gets you T800. At the end of the first hour, there is the add-on period and a 15 minute break. The add-on is $60 and gets you T800 regardless of stack size.

Since there are rebuys, people will get in there with a plethora of hands. As a result, you are more likely to get cracked the first hour. I believe the record for rebuys during the first hour is 16 or 17, so the pot can get up there. Usually first is over 10k with it selling out (120 people).

The blinds move up at a brisk pace. As a result, people drop like flies that second hour. When I played 3 weeks ago, 80 people dropped the second hour. To play this tournament, I would bring $300 just in case.
