We should put up a sticky or something that explains the Stars rebuy trick so that we get no more of these "so and so has $40,000 on Stars" posts

I can't speak to all of it but he's been on all day and I was on 2 of the tables earlier when he built up 2 of those stacks from initial buyins to over 10k. He's been running well and when a tough lag runs that well, the chips can really stack up.

someone posted in the other thread that caracas doesnt use the rebuy trick, just builds his stack the old style way

which is pretty impressive to get up to a 12 buy-in stack in a day

They lied

edited to add: one time I was playing 5-10 and there was this crazy guy with 6k playing every hand. He put a few beats on caracas and also pwned him a couple times, and anyway caracas starts trying to use rebuy trick to build back. Pushes preflop and gets caught by AA. hilarious
