So planning to join my first cheap local tournament.
What does $85+$5+$10
I know $85 is buy in and $5 is admin fee but whats the last $10? Is it rebuy for 6000 chips for only $10?
Gonna try out my first tournie and see how it goes. I believe they are 20 min blinds. How long would the game last consisting of 50-100 people?

Could be required dealer tip? Could be knockout bounty?

Typically, the $10 is an optional add-on. It's always best to take the option.

$5 is usually admin fee
$10 is optional add on.
Some tournaments will have an add on before the tournament and even sometimes at the break as well for the real degenerates who are stuck and are grasping at straws. It usually makes the prize pool a lot bigger and can be beneficial depending on your place

When you buy the addon those chips are at a discount where I play, so buy them.
