Figured I would start the Nightly REBUY thread early today......

No shame in folding the button, ya know.
It's just that when the standard raise is 36k, a 30k raise there either screams "I really want a call" or "I'm saving a little more of my stack in case I'm reraised."

Oh, I have 27k at second break of late night 11r. Haven't picked up a hand in a while, but I'm moving ahead thanks to bizarre hands like this one:
