    Need poker testers on sunday

    We're going to have a buy-in Poker Tourney at 10ET today to test Rebuys.

    It's a 10 point buyin with no fee, with 1 rebuy through the break.

    Rebuys are only for buy-in tourneys and work like this:

    1) Up to the break, if a players busts he can buy back in, 2000 chips for 10 points (and as long as nobody has cashed).

    2) During the break, a player can also buy 2000 chips for 10 points if he has less than the starting chip amount.

    3) Winners split all buy-in + rebuy-in points.

    4) To see rebuy info for a tourney, look at the header in the tourney lobby

    NOTE: if you play in this tourney you can also play in the gear tourney or the regular Sunday buy-in tourney at 5pm ET.

    it would be a good idea to change the blind structure otherwise no one is going to make it to the break

    The tournament last week allowed rebuys even though it wasn't supposed to. Can I get my rebuy back?

    The tourney last Sunday was a rebuy tourney. Check the info in the tourney lobby to see what you're signing up for.

    That usually means that you have a weak connection. Are you on wifi? Got a weak signal? You can try to plug directly in to your router.

    Probably not enough players to make it to the break anyway.

    it wasn't announced beforehand and it was posted that it was a mistake and it wasn't supposed to allow rebuys last week.

    does placing in any of the tourneys today affect the top 150 rankings?

    I don't know if this is going to be the format or not, but we either need to make the blinds a little longer or make the add-on to be more chips than what we started with. I'd have to do some calculations, but unless you are on the bubble with a few other players, there is very little reason for anyone to do an add on. You are basically purchasing 1.5m at that point in the tournament. I would make the add ons 1.5x or 2x the original amount of what we started with.

    another option is to add a 2 minute "add-on break" after 30 minutes,
