Reload Option when busting?

I was playing today on a loose table and then got bust for about $41 of my $50 stack.

Next hand I get dealt KK and push my last $9 all in. I get 3 calls. There is then action on the flop 885 and it turns out the other players have overpairs. I could possibly have won $50 - $100 here.

WHy cant online poker rooms incorporate an option where if you drop below 10bb?/lose over 50% of your stack in one hand - maybe each player could set their own limit, you are offered the chance to reload before next hand is dealt?

Stars kinda lets you do that..... but you gotta rebuy before the conclusion of the hand, and if you win, it lets you keep the rebuy... its called the rebuy bug, and It's funny to take a few hundy to the .01/.02 tables, push every hand, and have a stack of over $100.

usually when you click on the chips near the dealer it will have the option to buy more chips in cash games. Once you complete this the next hand you will have the chips there.

well thats how it works on noble anyway
