I had my first and last experience with rebuy tournaments yesterday. Played two, and rebought 3 times in one and 1 time in the other.

I simply don't like them. The whole idea why I like tournament-style poker is that when I put a mofo out, he is OUT. Or she! True enough, if I get donked out, or simply outplayed, I can rebuy, and I did. But it was not a right move for me. Rebuy Tilt is all it was.

That buy-in together with those rebuys equals a buy-in to a better-paying freezeout.

I learned my lesson.
