buy-ins
Poker participation fees
Buy-ins are acts of securing participation or commitment.
In business, getting buy-in means obtaining agreement from stakeholders before proceeding: We need buy-in from the executive team.
In poker, a buy-in is the amount required to enter a game.
In investing, a buy-in occurs when shares are purchased to cover a short position or when someone acquires a stake in a company.
