More chips, more
money!
We now offer
rebuys and add-ons
on some of our
multi-table
tournaments.
This means that
you can purchase
extra chips during a
tournament. A rebuy
is only available
before the first
break and will only
be available to
players who are at
or below their
original chip count.
The first add-on is
available during the
first break and will
be available to all
players, regardless
of their chip count.
Tournaments may
allow both methods
of boosting your
chip count, or just
rebuys.
If a tournament
allows rebuys or
add-ons, this fact
will be displayed in
the Tournament Lobby
(following the
tournament name) and
in the information
box on the
right-hand side. The
details will be
displayed upon
selecting the
tournament.
Further
information:
The prize pool
distribution for
rebuy and add-on
tournaments will not
be calculated until
both the rebuy and
add-on period has
ended. Only the
total prize pool
figure will be
displayed until the
add-on period is
over. If the add-on
option is not
offered, the prize
pool distribution
will take place
after the rebuy
period has ended.
You can request a
rebuy by clicking on
the 'Rebuy' button
on the game screen.
If you lose all
your chips, the
rebuy screen option
will appear (if you
are eligible). You
will have 30 seconds
to decide whether
you want to rebuy or
not. If you do not
rebuy, you will be
eliminated from the
tournament.
The number of
rebuys allowed for a
tournament can vary
from zero to
unlimited. The
number of add-ons
can also vary from
zero to unlimited in
a tournament. The
number of rebuys and
add-ons allowed in a
tournament will be
displayed in the
Tournament Lobby
under the tournament
description box.
When a tournament
starts, you can see
stack details, as
well as the
following
information:
- Cost of
rebuy and number
of chips per
rebuy
- Cost of
add-on and
number of chips
per add-on
Exception in
rebuy and add-on
tournaments:
If a player is
eliminated from the
tournament at a rank
that has a prize
associated with it,
even though the
prize pool is not
published, then the
rebuy/rebuy and
add-on period will
be closed. The prize
pool will be
published and the
eliminated player
will be paid his
prize money.
Crash Settlement
policy impact
With each rebuy
and add-on, the
total chips in the
tournament will
increase. The total
chips in rebuy
tournaments will be
equal to the sum of
all players
'player's starting
chips (including
extra starting
chips, if any)' plus
the sum of chips
given to all players
through a rebuy
request plus the sum
of chips given to
all players through
an add-on request.
The total chips in
the tournament will
continue to
accumulate as and
when players make a
rebuy request and
the final number
will be calculated
only when the add-on
period is over.
If a tournament
crashes during the
add-on period, the
exact count of total
chips in the
tournament at the
time of crash
(including the chips
added into the
tournament as a
result of rebuy and
add-on requests)
will be used to
distribute the
balance of the prize
pool money.
