What would you do in these situations of the 1st couple of hands of a rebuy?

 I always like to get a rebuy in as early as possible, but at Paradise you have to play a hand, then they give you the option to rebuy, and its only actually possible to recive the rebuy by the 3rd hand.

 It happend to me today in a €5+50 rebuy where I was dealt AQos the 1st hand in mid position and I raised 4xbb and got called by 4 players, the flop came Qclub Jdiamond6club so I raised 3/4 of the pot and everyone folded. Leaving me with 1820 chips, and un able to RB. I hate the Idea of wasting the 320 chips with my next 6 muck hands so I hung on with my 1820 chips, then I was dealt KK and got an almost double up to 3320. I was kind of happy as I got my RB for free but would have much prefered to pay 5€ and have a stack of 4820.

 Has anyone got any views or ideas to handle this situation?

Not much you can do. Some sites just have shty software. Carbon Poker is like that too except your rebuys aren't processed until after the first hand. My only suggestion is to fold until your rebuy is processed, unless you get a big pair.

Too true mate I thought it might have been a bit of a pointless post really(with no real way round it). Was just hoping for some magical advice really, lol. Cheers mate 🙂

i would just start limping pretty much everything and trying to smash a flop (watch some of the big dog vids, he does this well), but then if you dont you will get back to 1500 pretty quickly

no worries – the rebuy tourneys on 888 only allow you to rebuy on the second hand too so i know how you feel
