    whats the story with rebuys, do you have to lose your chips or can someone rebuy another 10k after the 1st hand and have a mega advantage?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 45 ROY BRINDLEY


    You need to go broke to take a re-buy. There is no top-ups or add-ons.

    Eleven people have paid up in advance for the first of these satellites (including Marty Smyth) with plenty more stating they will play.

    i'd play on the 2nd if i didn't have a court case the next day.. :mad::D

    anyway the reason i'm posting is because the buyin details says 200 and that includes the entry fee but in the first line the buy in says 250 plus reg.

    not being pedantic, just wondering which is it.

    if i don't get a prison term for my heinous crimes against humanity i might be out the following week. gl with it.

    edit: er, actually, there's a few other details you might want to update....

    Cheers man... I see. I'll re-post the whole thing.


    Best of luck in court, protest insanity

    its not really a stretch is it... :mad:

    Don't be putting poor Mag's mobile number out on the net, do you know how many freaks read this page?! At least 12!

    I'll try to persuade the girlfriend that I have a used car emergency situation and go to the 2nd night but I think she's beginning to grow suspicious when i don't get home till 5am.....
