Default Re: A Rebuy ? for Math Majors

But in the situation we're tlaking about, the buyins are the same. Your EV on the first $20 you put in, is going to be greater than your EV than the second $20 you put in. Because you're going to be entering yourself into a slightly harder situation, the later in the rebuy, ,the more difficult the situation.

Lets say in the 45k your initial double rebuy ($20) is worth $40. If you bust and buy back in, your new double rebuy, isgoing to be worth slightly less than $40. Lets say $39. Now if you only invest the $20 when you're getting the most value for it, or the initial time, then you'll have won more money.

By the same logic, it could make sense to not even take the double rebuy. The first 1500 chips you get are 'worth more' than the second 1500, so if over the long haul you only invested the original $10, i dont see why it wouldn't be more profitable than if you had spent the same amount of $ w/ the double rebuy.

Though, for variance/hourly rate/enjoyment factors, i think double rebuying and such is best. But now i'm not so convinced that it's the most profitable way.

That said, i could just be thinking really funky at the moment.
