But if none of your opponents are rebuying you make a serious error in both EV and ROI if you are the only one to rebuy.

not that this isn't necesarily true, but all your work for a 10 person tournament, can't really compare to a ~1000 person tournament.

True. But no one really has a good workable model of how to model the value of a certain chip stack in the midst of a ~1000 person tournament that isn't winner take all (and even the winner take all cEV = $EV isn't universally accepted). So it makes sense (at least to me) to check out the smaller tournament.

And for me, the most common rebuy tournaments I play in have between 88 and 150 players in them, so only 1 order of magnitude bigger than the single table example. And generally in these tournaments only about half the field rebuys right away.
