Default Re: Exploiting Party Rebuys

[ QUOTE ]
If they aren't going to fix this bug where you can go all in and rebuy, and ignoring any possible bankroll considerations, whats the optimal strategy cheating like this? I feel like just cheating and rebuying like mad is OK, especially if you are at like table 1 and those chips will be around for me to continue to cheat. But do you ever stop cheating at some point? IE, do you get to a point where cheating is not worth the extra 1k chips?

The structure, for those who don't know, is you start with 1k, and you can rebuy 1k whenever you are at 1k or less. Turns out you can cheat whenever all your chips are all in.

Recently I've been cheating until I get to the 8-l3k range which is always among the chip leaders, but it usually costs me a bunch to cheat like this.

FYP.

The rules for the rebuy state that you cannot rebuy unless you have 1k or less. Taking advantage of a bug is just another angle shot and shouldn't be tolerated any more than any other abuse. The rules do not require the tourney participants to have a bankroll large enough to sustain the variance associated with 100 all-ins in the first 10 minutes just because someone else at the table can afford it. I am sure people disagree because the bug can *theoretically* be exploited by all, but that's my opinion.

Please.

Listen, I dont expect others to not take any advantage they have, and as far as I know party may have even done this on purpose, who am I even to say this is a bug. Silly goose.
