    What is Buy-In in poker?

    A buy-in is the initial sum of money a player pays to enter a tournament or sit down at a cash game table. In tournaments, the buy-in (plus the number of entrants) determines the size of the prize pool; in cash games, it determines the starting stack a player brings to the table. Buy-ins are often structured in tiers, allowing players of different bankroll sizes to choose games that match their comfort level.
