Noon on Wednesday brings the start of one of the most entertaining tourneys on the WSOP schedule, Event #44, $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em w/ Rebuys. Players start with 2,000 in chips, and can rebuy at any time during the first two hours if and when their stacks dip below that 2,000 starting level. Player can also do a double rebuy-addon at the end of the second level for an additional 4,000 chips, no matter how many (or how few) chips they have at that juncture.

Expect that frequent cries of "Rebuy!" will be heard in the Amazon Room. Last year's event saw 1,048 starters chip in an extra 2,336 rebuys. Long after the early chaos was over, Michael Graves emerged with the bracelet and $742,121 in first-place winnings.
