This is harmful to players, dealers and charities. Rebuys" happen once a player loses all chips; a rule limiting them before elimination is unfeasible. VDACS imposes extra restrictions with questionable rationale, increasing administrative and legal costs for compliance with ill-suited regulations. VDACS creates confusion with guidelines misaligned with the game and industry. Since "rebuys" occur after chip loss, it's illogical to limit them before player elimination. VDACS' rule adds unnecessary constraints and associated compliance costs due to poorly conceived regulations. The published guidelines demonstrate a lack of understanding of the game and industry, causing confusion. One reasonable fix to this is to strike 11VAC20-30-100.H. If the justification is to limit the duration of a tournament, § 18.2-340.33.16 already provides that tournaments must have a predetermined end time (which is strange in its own right).
