You get one lot of chips, then the same again.  It's like a free rebuy. If you don't take it it will be given to you though.

much like a rebuy, when you can take your 2nd chance chips varies from venue to venue. some allow you to take them immediately while in others you need to be below 1/2 your original stack. in all cases theres a set point (almost always the 1st break) when all unused 2nd chances will be given out.

Some casino's insist on calling 1 rebuy/add-on comps double chance which isn't quite the same as the second buyin is not compulsory so some people pay half as much as others.
