i dont generally like or play rebuys, so my advice here i slimited.
i think that you just have to be willing to rebuy as many times as you can, and always take the add on. sure, there will be the once in a lifetime chance where you have as many chips as the rest of the field combined, but other than that the add on should essentially be mandatory.
as for game play, i think that it becomes more like a ring game for the first hour, and after that you have to tighten up. anytime that you feel like you have a slight edge, you should exploit it early on. you can always rebuy afterwards if you bust. sometimes i think that this might even extend to situations where you might not have the correct odds, but i am not quite so sure about it.
i generally dont like these tournaments because they do not suit my tight style of play, but there are definitely people who excel at them. as long as you have the bankroll for them, i wouldnt shy away if you feel like they are a good fit for you.
