I have a question.
In this game you can have as many rebuys for the 1st hour as you like. Understood.
During the break you can have an Add-on. In the lobby of this game it says :- "Addons 2 (1500 for 1 pts)".
I have trouble with my computer getting "errors" in my internet properties, so during the break I often reboot after getting an Addon. When I am logged back into the game I am asked "do you wish to buy an Addon for 1 point". The first time this happened I added on, thinking it had not registered my addon, and realised afterwards that I had added on twice, thus getting 3000 chips more than I had at the start of the break. I have not done this since because I thought it might be cheating by getting too many chips.
I am slightly confused because I am not able to "addon" more than once in the break if I stay connected. I noticed in the game tonight that someone had added 3000 chips to thier stack.
My question is:- How do the "addons" work. Is it a glitch with my system or Wass's. Or am I being thick lol. (no daft comments please lol)
By the way, I did make some daft bets to offload my "extra" chips and didnt win any money. Neither did the person that did it tonight, who was a bit of a twit anyway lol.
My God that's the longest piece of typing I've done for years, and wont do it very soon again.

How many chips did u have before the break Dave..I know if you go tilt right at the break u can "addon" and this will include the rebuy to give u a total of 3000 chips.

I have seen this happen a few times & wondered how players got so many chips. It happened to myself once it gave me double re-buy. Then the same as Dave I had to re-boot & I just clicked yes thinking it was a message but realized I had received a second re-buy. There must be a problem with the program.

Yep I tried to see if it worked Dave..and there is a glitch... but having said that I will no longer try it because it is cheating others and this game is a fun game ...so I hope others will be honest and not take advantage of it till they clear it up..I know I wont experiment again..and since I did go on to win the game I have donated the 5.00 to Fudgie who will send it off to the Childrens Wish Foundation...

Hi Guys,

Gian - Poker Room Manager from Wass Poker asked I post this for him. I hope this clears things up a bit.

Dear Forum Members,

The tourney played out the way it was set-up to do so. As GolfNut noted, the tourney lobby clearly indicated that there were 2 add-ons available, each for 1500 chips for a cost of 1 point.

We can change this for future tourneys so that there is only 1, which is more common (although many sites offer double add-ons). Players that took 2 add-ons did not cheat – they simply did what they were allowed to do.

Sorry that there was confusion in this instance. This tourney was set-up before my time, and since it is a tournament that was created for YOU, you can have us set-it up any way that you like. I suspect from reading this thread that you would prefer that we use a single add-on for this tournament moving forward.

Kind regards,

Gian Perroni
