At the end of the "rebuy period", you can purchase a double add-on ($5 for 3000 chips) to help you progress through the final table.

Blinds raised every 12 minutes.

Prizes: We're guaranteeing a minimum $500 prize pool. It will rise if re-buys and add-ons exceed $500.

A note about download managers: For those getting a weird file extension on the downloaded file, eg "efw", turn off your download management programs.

1. Download and install the software from the link above. Run the program and register a new account - no money or credit card details required at registration. You will then receive an email from the support staff with helpful information.

2. Log in (if you haven't already been logged in by the system at registration) and click the blue "Scheduled" button in the group of buttons on the lower left of the window.

3. Then click the "Specials" option in the "Choose Game" panel.

4. Soon the BigFooty.com King of Poker entry will appear in the list of tournaments to the right of the "Choose Game" panel. Double click that entry.

5. Click "Register" in the window that pops up.

6. Show up on Wednesday 16th and play! In the meantime you can also take part in any other game in the system.

7. If you think you'd like to take advantage of the re-buy or add-on option please fund your account with a few dollars first. Rebuy options only last about 10 seconds as they hold up the entire table while you re-buy. There will be a few people with balances from their winnings in the Queen of Poker so we anticipate a few more rebuys and addons this time.

For those unfamiliar or unsure about rebuy tournaments. You start with an amount of chips (say 1500) and a for a nominal fee, a rebuy will give you an extra 1500 in chips. The rebuy period will last for a finite period of time, maybe 3 blind levels. You can rebuy during this time whenever your chip stack is equal to or less than your starting stack.

That is, if you have 1500 or less during the rebuy period, you can rebuy, thus you can rebuy before the very first hand. If you bust out and wish to continue, you must rebuy immediately. And not only that, you can make a double rebuy and come back in with double the starting stack (say 3000).

At the end of the rebuy period, there is usually a break. After the last hand, anyone can optionally take an add-on or a double add-on. These work like rebuys except there is no restriction as to who is eligible, as is the case with rebuys.

Thus, if you bust out on the last hand of the rebuy period, your options are:
a) do nothing, you're out of the tournament
b) take a single or double rebuy
c) take a single or double rebuy, AND a single or double add-on

Hey good stuff. :thumbsu:
 
27 registered. I'm in. I'm not a big fan of rebuy/add on tournaments. Tournaments should reward players that can play when everyone is on a level playing field.
