Although it's not clear from the HH, I'm assuming that you're CO with the pocket Eights, and you iso'd here.

In which case your play is totally standard.

If you're not CO, and you folded 88, then I'd say that it was a mistake, even after CO makes the re-shove.


On a general note, if you're doing it properly then 3x turbo rebuys are much expensive than the minimum buyin. You have to take quite a few gamble spots in order to have a shot at a good stack when the addon comes round. Due to the risk element of play as the end of the rebuy period approaches I'd suggest an average of somewhere around ten or twelve bullets would be a good budget for them, ie for 1r 3x I think you should budget about $10-$12 or so.
