Tab: Buyins

The third tab on the Edit Structure settings is related to buyins. This section deals with concepts like multiple buyin costs, differet size starting stacks for earlier buyins etc. This section will also deal with if your tournament is a Knockout event or allows Rebuys and Addons and Double Chance. All fields will be explained in greater detail below.

The first section of the Buyins tab is everything related to the buyins of this tournament. It has a number of fields which should be completed.

Buyin - This is the amount a player will pay which will go towards the prizepool (minus any withheld amounts from the Financials tab)
Fee - This is the amount the player pays for the service. The fee and buyin combined are the total cost for the player to enter the tournament
SPP - This is the amount of points the player will earn for playing this tournament
Chips - This is the value of each player's starting stack
Apply condition - This section can be used fora number of reasons. The most common uses of the Apply Condition field is for allowing a lesser entry fee for a certain number of levels or giving extra chips for a certain number of levels

In order to change conditions, multiple buyins must be input on the Buyin section. You can then apply a different condition to each buyin.

The above photo will be shown if you try to apply conditions when you only have one buyin set. Below we will show the different options when multiple buyins are set. You can change many different settings like between what levels this condition will be used, which entries it will be used for and if it's only for a particular day.

The next section of the Buyins tab deals with your tournament if it has a knockout or bounty dynamic.

You must check the "Enable" box in order to edit Knockout details.

There are a number of fields relating to the bounty details which we will explain now:

Value - If your tournament has a set knockout amount, enter that amount here
Progr. (%) - If your tournament is a progressive bounty, insert the % of the bounty a player will win if they knock another player out. Common % for this is 50%
Round - This is to choose whether you want the odd amount of the bounty to be awarded to the player as a prize or to be added to their bounty. Chooisng bounty will add to their bounty. Choosing Amount will add to their prize
House - If the house will withhold an amount of the bounty, then check this box
Tax - If the house will withhold an amount of the bounty for tax, then check this box

The final section of the Buyins tab deals with Rebuys, Addons and Double Chance (if permitted). This section is extremely similar to the Knockout section.

You must check the "Enable" box in order to edit Rebuy, Addon and DC details.

There are a number of fields relating to the Rebuys, Addons and DC details which we will explain now:

Rebuy allowed - This is how many rebuys a player is entitled to use
Addon allowed - This is how many addons a player is entitled to use
Double Chance allowed - This is how many Double Chances a player is entitled to use

You can then apply the same conditions to your Rebuys and Addons that you did for the buyins.
