    Actually, since the Nth chip is worth more than the Nth + 1 chip, not rebuying might very well be +EV. Tough call, depends on the stacks sizes and how top heavy the payouts are.

    Are you raising with rags in any position, or just in late position? If in early position do you come out betting after the flop? What if someone calls, do you then slow down?

    I think we've all been there. Its funny how often I see something posted on this site and say, "I've done that, and now that I see it called out in black and white, I just ain't gonna do it anymore!" Then, I do anyway, but not as often!

    I respect you for putting the downside out there too. Keep at it!

    Phew! I just got done reading this thread and I'm exhausted!

    Nice work rip! You'll make that final table very soon I predict!

    Hey, just curious. You've obviously been very successful on Paradise in the tourneys. I have found that the players on Paradise are definitely better than on sites like Party Poker or Empire Poker. Your style of play is more the exception on Paradise than the norm. How do you think you'd fair with this style on a site like Party Or Empire where there are more "bad" players or more players who play your style?

    Now, that being asked, keep in mind that you play that way consciously. The bad players on Party and Empire play that way because they don't know any better so there is a big difference between you and them. Just curious, thanks!

    BTW.... did you drink about 4 pots of coffee before this tournament? You were WIRED!!

    yeah rippy, do you have a giant hamster wheel that you jog on in between hands or what?!?!?


    still, good tourney rippy, your ballsy approach continues to amuse and amaze me.

    i wear my WWRD bracelet everytime i play.

    this post is 1 year old, why'd you dig it up?

    otoh, it is funny to see how the "rippy" technique, which we all take for granted nowadays, originally evolved out of the muck (so to speak).
