About LinkBacksI know we discussed it a long time ago, but I cant find the thread...
There must be a point where it's -EV to add on in a rebuy MTT, but whats the point?
I just add on 4500 in the PP 1$ rebuy and I felt ridiculous... I already had 56K in front of me...

greg raymer has a proof somewhere about where u shouldnt add on.
i think its something like if you have more than 10% of the chips in play, maybe 30%, i dunno, search it on 2+2
i cant remember a time where i havent added on...

no way. average stack at break of the 3r is like 8k, you wouldnt pay $3 to add 20% to your stack if you were at 8k Originally Posted by IronMan
honestly ive added on with 44k at 1st break and i think it was correct to do so.

If average is 8k at beginning of add-on, the average after the add on will be 9k - 9.5k... if you dont add on you are now below average

Well.. I dont know where the point is but its certainly not the average stack! Originally Posted by IronMan

Like I said with a Q of 4.5 and an add on representing less than 8% of my stack yesterday, I felt I did'nt need to add on... but I did cause I did,nt know if it was right or wrong and I felt better be wrong to add on here VS wrong to not.
