Re: Variable Buy-In tourney: what would you chose?
Buy-in the max if you think you are better than the field. The deeper stacked you are, the less of a crapshoot it becomes. Think about it this way, say 9 people who had no idea how to play bought 1 chip each for $1. If you bought 1 chip for $1, what would their equity be? Now what if you bought $10? $100? You'll find that as your stack increases, their equity becomes proportionally less until it is nearly impossible for them to win.
Now, if you are sitting with Ivey, Greenstein, <name your pros here>, you may as well buy-in for the minimum and start gambling.
