In my opinion, you are at a disadvantage in a R/A tourny if you cannot rebuy. The typical player there does plan on rebuying 3-5 times, and is committed to the type of play that best succeeds....loose/aggressive for the first hour. This will allow for the greatest chance to chip-up in a major way.

So what happens if you win a ticket to a large buy-in R/A and you cant rebuy? Well, try "talking the game"......tell the table you hope you dont have to rebuy more than 10 times!! Let them get a loose image of you because of what you say, then play super tight/aggressive. Get AA or KK and go all-in. Hope that players call because they think you are loose. Your goal here is to triple, maybe quad, up by the break.....at which time everyone else tightens up their play because rebuys are over.

If you cant rebuy, luck is your only other option.
