OKOPS 3 - "Double Chance"?

Forgive my ignorance BUT, do you have to bust to get another chance? Or can you just buy the extra chips as long as you're below starting stack?  Should you go into the game "expecting" to buy the extra chips?  The reason I ask is I've tried a few all-in sats to no avail and will prob do the same again tonite BUT would I be at a serious disadvantage in NOT take the "second chance"?  I hope that makes sense?

    Normally the one buy-in buys you two sets of chips, and you can bring the second set ito play at anytime before a clsoe off time, so it wudnt cost you any extra.

    Sky do sometimes do things a little different tho and never played one on here.

    Reading the lobby it says that you can use the "Double Chance" to buy the extra 4000 chips at any time in the first 6 levels.

    you don't have to bust and my understanding is that you don't have to be below starting stack either.

    Solack's right, there's just one rebuy for £100 and there is no threshold you need to drop below in order to rebuy, can take it anytime.

    So, really, as far as I can tell it's not a 'double chance' in the traditional sense?? Its more of a limited rebuy tourny.

    That would be how I would describe it, yes, or "Single Rebuy", several players have asked me the same thing about this one.

    Good luck, & don't be messing with me, right?

    Thanks, my next UKOPS will probably be Sunday's Main, but I'll stick to PLO8 until then!
