A bizness thread!

Is the bit of the tampon that you can poo out

The main structure of a tampon swells in side your azz and gets stuck

Lesson learnt don't play with tampons when you don't know what they are used for angry

OK now I have Seriously lost ITsad

What is a bizness thread?

This Poker Island started a while ago. Was a chit tourny from start. I said as much from then . (like hold it on millport etc).
Look Its done and dusted . What happenned last Saturday happenned. Site went down. Rules are rules.
No point going into a lot of other stuff . This is all BS.
PR did what they had to do by the rules. You want them chenged ? Try doing it before the game starts. . That applies to all tournies.
Now im off for a Chinky. (no offense).

Shout out to walt! (looking handsomer than eva), and spiderpig who has mysteriously turned into a deep sea seal eating bad azz waruss mofo!

Yer, i thought it was your skin name toe, but none the less, you hav raised a long overdue issue, and thats some real initiative and good character. I had no idea it wasnt even u! And then ppl tried to smear you lmao. Welcome to my world champ. The whiskey helps me to forget :P


This thread is about as close to the trash can, as chad is to a 'free' lady very_happy


But I'll leave it with ya now toe. I hope this dude knows what youve done for him, as he may hav already been paid out, and be trippin on a caribean island by now. Contact him. Anyway, hopefully this bad publicity will be averted soon, and permanant examples of resolution are provided in this thread. This will be the last time i will be dealing with pr over this particular type of issue.

Hi Killerwattx,

When a tournament freezes, refunds must be made. The decision on how this is achieved comes down to whether the tournament was in the prize structure at the time that it froze. If a tournament does not reach the prize structure then everyone is refunded their buy-in. Since this tournament had a ‘winner takes all’ prize, it was not in the prize structure at the time it froze. Therefore, the refund for this tournament was for all the players to get the buy-in back (a ticket).



Here are the responses to the questions you posed:



1) everyone in the tournament has received a ticket to re play the whole tournament again, including the people who went out of the tournament after 1 min. Yes this it true, its part of the normal refund policy. Also, it’s worth noting that this was a FreeRoll tournament and there were over 3000 players which had a ticket to this tournament - only 700 played.



2) the final table cant be re run from where the tournament froze, (why is this). Technically this is not automatically possible for a FreeRoll tournament. Also, it wasn't just the final table players to consider. Throughout entire length of this tournament, players were experiencing disconnects. The problems were not only experienced at a signal point in time but rather throughout the day. That means that random players were getting disconnected from all tournaments.



3)the prize in question is for 1 person to win a trip to pokerisland in Ibiza, where u compete against other players, the winner is signed to poker room for 1 year to play for them. NO PERSON WON THIS PRIZE. The prize was brought across to the 28th when they reran the tournament.



How can u run a tournament which nobody wins, and how can u allow people who were not even on the final table a chance to win, even though they were beaten fair and square earlier in the tournament. The prize was carried over to the re-run tournament. It was a FreeRoll with an extremely large prize, therefore there was only one prize offered. A number of the other players were not fairly beaten but also got disconnected at some stage.



As a gesture of good faith PokerRoom.com has added four $5+0.5 tournament tickets to your account.



Kind Regards,

Tex
