Rebuy Tournaments

There's nothing worse than having an early exit from a tournament. There you are, settling in for a nice long poker session and before you know it one silly mistake or horrible bad-beat has sent you packing. But with our rebuy tournaments you still have a chance to keep playing.

How? Because in a rebuy tournament you can purchase additional chips within a certain predefined period of a tournament if you bust out or fall below a certain chip count.

Example One:

You're playing in a $5 tournament and you started with 2,000 chips. You start strong but after only a few minutes you've lost the lot. Naturally, you'd like to carry on playing and the good news is, in a rebuy tournament you can! When you get busted, a little pop-up window will appear asking if you'd like to pay another $5 to carry on in the tournament. Click yes and 2,000 more chips will be delivered to you before the next hand. Click no, and your out.

Example Two:

You're playing in a $10 tournament but the 2,000 chips you started with have dwindled to 800 chips. Our rebuy tournaments (unless otherwise stated) allow you to do something about it. If you fall below your initial chip count during the rebuy period, we allow you to purchase more chips. So, all you need to do is click the rebuy button over the dealers chips, pay another $10 and watch your chip stack increase.

To enter a rebuy tournament just look for tournaments with the word "Rebuy" in the name in the Scheduled tournaments listings within the poker lobby and register. If you do enter a rebuy tournament, make sure you have a plan layed out before you start playing. You won't have long time to make up your mind during the actual tournament before the next hand is dealt. And you wouldn't want to miss out would you?

When exactly can I rebuy?

Unless otherwise stated, you can rebuy at any time during the first hour of the tournament. If you run out of chips completely, you can rebuy when the pop-up box appears. You may also rebuy when your chips fall below your initial balance.

Add-Ons

Here's another great feature you might enjoy. Unless otherwise stated, our rebuy tournaments also include an "add-on" option which allows you to buy additional chips at the end of the final rebuy round regardless of the number of chips you may have. Add-ons are always useful, giving you extra chips with which to play with during the remainder of the tournament.

The Small Print

1.	We also take no responsibility for your missing the rebuy or add-on window and we recommend that you ensure your account has sufficient funds or Loyalty Points before the start of the tournament, as it is unlikely you will have time to increase your account balance and return to the table in time for the rebuy or add-on.
2.	Rebuy/add-on chips are delivered for the start of the next hand following the purchase.
3.	As rebuys require a cage transaction, we cannot take responsibility for cage transaction requests that fail due to connectivity problems regardless of the cause.
