This screen contains the results of the tournament.
This section indicates the blind structure of the tournament.
The number of chips awarded through a rebuy or add-on is constant, regardless of the amount of chips you have before you make the rebuy or add-on.
This section displays information about the tournament and is updated in real time.
If you run out of chips during a tournament’s rebuy period, this popup box will automatically appear. You can also request rebuys by clicking on the chip tray. If you are still eligible for a rebuy and you request a rebuy during a pot, the rebuy will be added after the pot. If you have requested a rebuy during a pot, you can change your mind by clicking on the chip tray again before the next pot starts.
By using the arrows you can alter the number of individual rebuys, if you are eligible to make more than one rebuy. If you lose all of your chips, you must make a rebuy within 30 seconds or you will be eliminated from the tournament.
In most rebuy tournaments, you will also be allowed to make add-on(s) when the rebuy period ends. There is always a 5 minutes break after the last rebuy level. Sometimes it is allowed to make both a rebuy(s) and an add-on(s) during the break or even both at the same time. You can also make the rebuy(s) first and then the add-on(s).
If you make the add-on first, you may not be allowed to make a rebuy afterwards, so it is best to check the rules of the tournament before you make either a rebuy or add-on.
