This was discussed heavily as I was leaving CO. A ton of similar structures were popping up at the time. Look in the MTT section. Next time we hang out I'd be interested in theorizing on this.

Post or link to specific rules, how late you can add on, etc.

Without the theory, the short answer is I want to have the maximum amount of chips as soon as possible. I always buy immediately if given the chance. Imo, this is standard for a rebuy tourney.

Its even when better when you can double through a player who also added on.

Always take the most chips possible at the beginning. Always want to be in the position to make the most when double ups are possible

"Always" is a pretty bad word when it comes to poker theory.

I played a prelim last week, and did the add on right away, but not sure this is the right thing to do. Thoughts?
what is your main concern?
ROI?
if you goal is to cash, then the extra $100 is minimal in my opinion. playing as even as possible in chips with the other folks is more paramount... either pay the 100 or find a new tournament.

I always do the add on right Away, but I talked to some guys at the last tournament, and they said they usually wait to see if the add on will even be needed, so it had me questioning myself if I was doing it all wrong.

Tournament is today, wish me luck haha

the one with the 13 on the cover?



correct one.
I am finding it difficult to line up meaningful games unless you are actually in contact with the person.

:Schu

ps... it says no "amused" can be found

If anyone else at the table takes the add-on at the start of the tourney, I take the add-on. If not, I will likely wait until I have a smaller stack than anyone. If I get to the break without taking it, I usually will unless I have a monster stack.

You realize a categorical statement about how categorical statements are bad is kind of self-contradicting, right?

I could be wrong, but I think if you have Fantasyland purchased and hit it VS someone who doesn't have it you'll still trigger it. Amused I bet your game VS Katana is just the default OFC mode. To turn on Fantasyland you'll need to make a customized game type and enable it.

I still enjoy the game either way, but honestly I'm with you.

I could use another game at .25/pt or .50/pt if you feel like adding a table. Amused you too if you're down, I know you're friends with Katana and others here even though I haven't met you in person yet! ThousandTigers on the app.

Man this app sucks so hard. Sorry about all the peeps I'm playing and taking forever on my moves. It's kicked me out and frozen my games like 10x today and had to restart several times.
