What is the Rebuy Feature in a Poker Tournament
  • The re-buy feature allows a participant in a
    Poker tournament to buy more chips to maintain
    his presence in the game when his chips go below
    a certain limit. The feature is available only in
    re-buy tournaments. In a freezeout tournament,
    re-buys are not allowed. Some tournaments allow
    players to rebuy a fixed number of times and some
    offer unlimited re-buys. The feature is available
    only at the beginning of the game for a specific
    amount of time.

How the Rebuy feature works?
  • Tournament is the most played variant of Poker
    games. The objective of the game is to win the
    hand with the strongest hand in value as per
    poker Sequence rules. Every participant brings a
    stack of chips to play with at the table. When
    this stack (chips in-hand) goes below the
    predetermined limit while playing, he can use the
    rebuy option to save himself from getting
    eliminated. The re-buy limit usually equals to
    the tournament buy-in but varies from tournament
    to tournament.

  • Time period 
  • In a re-buy tournament, a player can rebuy only
    within a fixed time period that varies as per the
    game rules. In most tournaments, the player can
    avail of the option within 10 seconds of getting
    eliminated from his seat.
  • Auto rebuy
  • In an online poker game, you can use the auto
    rebuy feature to bring more chips to the table.
    When you enable the option, your chip stack
    automatically restores to the required level
    whenever it falls below the pre-fixed level.

Final Add-On
  • As a final Add-On, all players get the chance to
    add extra chips to their current chip stack. The
    chips allotted here are usually 2x or 3x more
    than the starting chip stack. You can have the
    final add-on when the rebuy period ends. At a
    predetermined time, the game pauses for a few
    minutes. All active players can avail the Final
    Add-On in the allotted time (2-4 Minutes as per
    the tournament type).
