Re-entry Tournaments

[WILD]

For those of u who play on carbon, when u play re-entry mtts, does it seem like the money doesn't get added to the prizepool? I remember doing the math on one after rebuying myself, but the prizepool only matched the buy in, not the rebuys. That doesn't seem fair for carbon to do that. Anyone know why?

In a $11 ticket satty I thought the same thing. I dont know if its true

I had noticed the same thing but its been since January since I used carbon

I don't know about not adding the re=entries to the prize pool but I'm sure the reason for changing to "re-entries" vs rebuys is so that they can charge a buy-in fee over and over again.

what about live reentry tournaments? theres a little bit of a debate going on right now with that. mike matusow has said that people
have to deal with phil ivey being able to buy in 9 or 10 times. any thoughts?

I don't have a problem with re-entries since registration is open anyway. More money to the prize pool. Though I don't like the idea of 3-hour late registration. Pretty ridiculous

Exactly! an hour is long enough(too long) online but 3 hours even live would be ridiculous let alone online WOW

Ihave noticed and stopped playing rebuys alltogether!

I'm pretty sure they do add it on, but only after it goes past the amount GTD.

If it doesn't hit its guarantee with the original buy ins, shouldn't the re-entries be added anyway to at least get close or match the guarantee? (I just brought this up because I was in one of those $3.30 deep mtts, I think the guarantee was already passed, I did a re-entry, and I know it wasn't included. I did the math, the number of entrants, multiplied by the buy in, and it equaled only for entrants. My extra money wasn't included, and it made me wonder, how many others did a re-entry where the money wasn't added to the prizepool.)
