To continue competing in the competition, competitors must keep a minimum chip balance after each game or round. The players that have more chips than the minimum chip balance or exactly equal to it advance to the following game/round.
Minimum Chip Balance = | Point Value of Round x 80 |
Example
Point Value: 10
Minimum Chip Balance: 10x80
= 800
Refer to the example below:
Point value for Game 1, Round 1: 10
Min. qualifying chip balance 10 x 80 = 800
Rebuy = ₹10 for 100 chips

Terms & Conditions
Terms & Conditions
- All points rummy tournaments have fixed seats. Players must be available to enter the tournament at the scheduled start time.
- When registration for a tournament opens, players can sign up, and entry will be on a "first come, first served" basis.
- Every round or game may have a different point value.
- The rebuy option will not be available in the last round of the tournament.
- A game will be forcibly halted if it continues after the round time has passed. When the game is force-stopped, the forced-stopped deal will be considered null and void for all players at the table. Scores of that deal will not be calculated.
- If a player’s chip balance does not meet the minimum qualifying chips value even after rebuying chips, the player will not be eligible for rebuying chips and will be eliminated from the tournament.
- The prize pool may be increased by adding some of the rebuy money. Before the tournament starts, the percentage share of the rebuy money will be displayed on the tournament details page.
- The algorithm will wait for a certain amount of time before allowing the other players to reveal their cards if a declaration is made in the final 60 seconds of a round. After that, rankings and scores will be determined, and rewards will be awarded accordingly.
- The prize pool and winnings may change depending on how many players join the tournament and rebuying chips.
- When there is a tie, the prize is split equally among the tied players,
who all have the same rank.
Example: If there is a tie for the 2nd rank between 2 players, the cash prizes for Rank 2 and Rank 3 will be added up and the total amount will be divided between the 2 players equally. Hence, there will be two Rank 2s in such a case, followed by Rank 4 as the Rank 3 player will be moved to Rank 4. - In case of a tie for a ticket prize, tickets will be distributed to all
the players in the tie ranks by removing ticket prizes from the last
winning ranks who are getting the same ticket.
The next consecutive ranks would shift by the number of players tied.
Example: Order of Ranks: Rank 1, Rank 2 (ticket), Rank 2 (ticket), Rank 4, … and so on. - In case there is a tie in the last rank which has a ticket ( or non-dividable prize) and there is only 1 ticket left to be given out, the following parameters would be considered for tie-breaker:
- Chip balance of previous rounds.
- Registration time. Whoever registered for that tournament first.
- All players are randomly allocated seats at the tables.
- 30% TDS (tax deducted at source) will be deducted from the winnings of ₹10,000 or more won in a single game, tournament or contest.
- Rummy.com reserves the right to modify or withdraw any tournament at any time without any notice.
