Rebuy poker tournaments are special online poker tournaments where the players have an option to “re-buy” some extra chips if they bust out or run down, so that they can get back in to the tournament. The time when the players “re-buy” these extra chips is called the Re-buy period.

In Rebuy poker tournaments, players can “re-buy” a particular amount during a session (mostly the first 90 minutes) and this “re-buy” in amount is usually the initial buy-in amount.

Generally, the re-buy period lasts for the first few rounds. Before the re-buy period comes to an end, the players have a choice of adding on or buying in another fixed amount of chips, regardless of how many chips they have. When the re-buy period ends, the tournament becomes a Freezeout.
