I have a love hatred with these types of MTT's. On one hand you have some nice cash to win and of course the re-buys add towards to the end amount to win, but some players tend to become super wreck-less with the constant ease of being able to re-buy and of course the massive add on everyone gets at the end as the re-buy section ends which sometimes can level the field even and give them a better chance when you have spent the last hour trying to get a big chip count like I just have now.
Still, regardless of that these are still one of my favourite types of MTT to play, if I can get away with not re-buying and getting past the re-buy stage.

I like this rebuy mtt´s. You can buyin with the late reg option and have a good chance to reach the in the money positions with 2-3 double ups. Sometimes you need only 5 rebuys and a add on for a good position.

They are good that you can rebuy but they can be pretty tricky in terms of bankroll management if you do not know when to stop rebuying your entry.
I personally prefer multi entry tournament, i mean even if you get busted at a table you are still in the game with more chips combined on the other tables
I really like mtt's, i play often the 180players turbo 2,20 and 4,40 on pokerstars. The playerfield isn't too difficult and it has a good blind structure. On other clients that dont have a lot of traffic it is a lot less fun.

Well, rebuy gives the bad players an advantage imo and turbo also gives poor players an advantage as you can be blinded down (and so they can too obviously).
The thing is they are swingy as heck too so unless you are putting in lots of hours chances are you're on the losing end of the stick a lot of the time.

these tournaments really are a minefield. the first hour is one heck of a rollercoaster. you just have to buckle up and hold on because if you get through the first hour you have a great chance of making a decent ROI. but getting through the first hour is very difficult, good luck
