Thoughts on trying to Sat into main tonight

jams88

Is it worth trying to sat into the main event to tonight as a small stakes player given that it is a rebuy event and I don't have the roll to rebuy or add on so would effectively be playing it as a freezeout.

Binked free entry to the mini last night in the tv comp so was going to use the money i would usually spend on the mini to try and sat into main but is it worth it?

DOHHHHHHH

Try and sat in twice.......

Plenty of players have done well in rebuys without adding on or rebuying.

Alot of the bigger players will be re-buying immediately to double there stack size so you'll definately be at a disadvantage.  That said, with a chip advantage, they are likely to opening pots with a wider range which is an ideal situation to play good solid poker and try to pick up pots with your strong hands.

As long as you know your limits and play accordingly there's no harm in giving it a spin, there will be massive value in this tournament if you can get through it without taking a re-buy.

If you sat in twice can you use the second sat as a rebuy?
or can you not exchange?

If you sat twice, you'll be credited £55.00 for the second one so you can use that as a re-buy

heres my advice hope its gd advice register with ya bankroll then if u satteliete in u can have the cash then de reg the main this is what i be doing but i be playing the main but late reg so i can make it till break to get the add on imo there is no pooint playing the main tonight if u are not doing a add on the add on is so many chips start with 4 k and add on is 10k u have to add on i feel think late reg is best aswell so u can make it to the add on period

I know it's spectacularly late but last week I won the competition on the show for a UKOPS 4 semi seat. Obviously UKOPS 4 is a rebuy so I felt as though it was a bit of a poisoned chalice for me as it would mean paying £110 at least if I was going to play optimally - Money I can't afford.

So I registered for the main, won the satellite and took the £55 as IDONKCALLU said. I'd advise anyone else in that situation to do the same. Use the money you win from the satellite to pay for smaller buy-ins or sats to Freezeout tournaments.

huuuuume

every single player on my table used the add on

although, i went from below average to above it during the add on so it would seem there were plenty who didnt add on
