i think they are liable to look you up fairly wide, just cause its still during a rebuy...
so i dunno, my guess is almost any ace KQ and 22+

I dunno if its quite as wide as that - like i am not sure you will see the really weak aces call but i think it will be pretty wide due to the rebuy structure

I like it very much too.
Calling range for them depends a bit if some of the players involved have allready used their rebuy or not. Players in those tournaments are far more reluctant to call with medium hands than in normal rebuy tourneys + add-on.
I'd say calling range is AQ+, 99+.

I like em both....infact I like em alot. Talk about tons of FE and when you get called...I expect to be flipping most of the time with some of their out already gone. Think their ranges are somewhere between areaman's and PennyBlack. Probably closer to area,it is a rebuy after all.

There's a lot of hands I'd do this with,and the stacks are just sooo perfect.....

If SB was the caller in the last one...meh,that sounds like 77,hopefully not though,let's say KQ so you don't have to hit your 2 outer

lol...I am almost done trying to range people...caller in hand one had Q6 suited...flop Q6X..gg...I did rebuy and bust him later though so some justice...

2nd I was called by A 9 suited...flopped a set and it held...

people just are calling resteals light these days...seems to be a general trend and we just gotta factor it in
