I was able to buy double addon

So, just before the add-on break my table broke down. I was the only one at my table waiting to be reassigned. Then I got the option to buy add-on. I bought it, then it moved me to the new table and the rebuy option popped up and I noticed that the addon button was on too. I got curious and tried to buy an additional addon and got it and it works. I guess the restriction is coded as one addon per table.

I think I've done this before once. It happened in exactly the same way @mastah4 describes ( ...was moved to a new table... ) .

It happened just after Values in BB in tournaments was implemented, so I wasn't 100% sure if my chip count is correct and that it could be switched off. As I was playing at least 6 MTTs at the time and the one affected was with the lowest buy-in I forgot about it.

Now as I saw the post it felt like deja vu :laugh:

It could be a table balancing issue :wonder: There was well-known bug in Mr. Gorsky before...  If you late-reg during the add-on break and be seated at a new table - no rebuy/add-on buttons were visible.

Just wanted to confirm what @mastah4 stated and to post a screenshot of the lobby:

In my history for the hands at 18:38 and 18:42 (before and after the add-on break) nothing weird happened. However it was the same table and players.

One way to spot the bug is to observe when the tables are being balanced during the break.

@mastah4 you performed a rebuy and an addon (I've never seen a double addon going through). You got 10k chips (7k from addon and 3k from rebuy). This is unfortunately a really old bug, which has proven difficult to fix. Please do report it, if anything like this happens again!

@Stubbe-Unibet  does this mean that actually when reseated during the break the add-on button appears again?

When I clicked it in my case, I thought it gave me x2 the starting stack again.

 

On a side note: The current set-up when rebuy appears 1st and infront of add-on when you're below starting stack during the break is bad.

Maybe even misleading esp. to players not used to it. Admittedly, I've made unwanted rebuys few times when multitabling too.

For the newbies it's even worse - I've seen some of them making rebuy only during the break (not having enough € for the add-on, probably).

I'm very sure I bought the add-on first on the old table and was mildly surprised when the rebuy popped again (not that exceptional, because I didn't buy one in the old table) and more surprised when there was the option to buy the add-on. I closed the rebuy option and then there was still the add-on option which I clicked. I was busy with other tourneys so I didn't actually count the chips, I just noticed that I got chips added. And I play a lots of tourneys, so I'm aware of the rebuy trap. And what got my attention that I had the option to both buy rebuy and add-on after having bought one. So I'm pretty sure there is at least a graphics glitch with the rebuy being marked as add-on in such circumstances (Does the rebuy button even remain if you refuse the pop-up for rebuy and buy an add-on, I have no idea?)

Can you check from the backlog (I don't know is it possible) if I got the add-on first and then a re-buy or if I first got a re-buy or then add-on?. I imagine the first add-on press would have added the real add-on (or people would notice that they get an a rebuy instead of add-on when a table is getting broken) but some safety feature instead turned the second request for an add-on into a request for a re-buy. 

Or maybe that is the old bug you were referring to, it was just somewhat vague so I don't know if we were on the same page. 

@GothMoth I'm very sure that the add-on button reappears when this happens, even though clicking it apparently only gives a rebuy or then the first add-on button on the first table only gives a rebuy.

It disappears and should do so, but I've played some qualifiers where it remains after the add-on.

Regarding the "double add-on" issue I think it's actually the unused rebuy that have been credited to us, masked under the still clickable add-on...
