Default Stars Rebuy Question

How do you make a quick double rebuy when you bust? I seem to bust and only have time to get back up to t1500 before the next hand is dealt? Or, if I lose a pot and fall below t1500, I don't get a chance to rebuy before the next hand.

Which sucks because I will, of course, be dealt a big hand and don't get the chance to double up as much as I would like.

What's the trick? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] I seem to see others go from BUSTO to t3000 immediately.

Thanks,

-Z

P.S. Apologies if this isn't the right forum.

this may sound like a snarky answer, but it's not. You have to click really fast...

It's easier to do in a regular speed rebuy then in the turbos. Just go quickly and you'll get the double.

Thanks. I think I just need to work on my timing. I was told I shouldn't wait for Rebuy button after busting, and go ahead and get into options while busting. But I can't press rebuy before I actually bust. So, sounds like it's gotta be time very well.

When it tells you you can't rebuy, just close the window, and try again. Just keep doing it.

The key to the successful double rebuy is using the enter key (space bar works too).

It's the pop-up windows that really screw you. Use the enter key to close them out. So, you click on the rebuy button on the bottom of the screen, quickly hit enter, then click on the rebuy button in the options menu and then hit enter twice (once to rebuy and once to close the pop-up window).

The trick to rebuying is that when more then one person loses part of their stack you need to wait for them to rebuy or not rebuy before you can for a 2nd time.

It's really not hard to double rebuy every time. After you bust, just rebuy normally clicking on the button that pops up. As soon as it says $5 has been taken or w/e, go to options immediately then add the chips on, I have had no problems double-rebuying at all and i've play lots of rebuys. Just make sure the 2nd rebuy is right before the cards are dealt or it's no one elses turn to rebuy, so if your the only one to bust you can rebuy #2 right away, basically what jurollo said.
