Turning out not good at all.  Down an hour.  Surely just cancel them now?  Glad I am not working tomorrow.

I don't think it is that straight forward.  Though my NLO8 tournament was still open and some jumped in, because of the carnage the guarantee hadm't been met.  So even though I had above average and some people probably took advantage, Stars still had to pay the difference up to the guarantee.

Of course, I am all for an ICM settlement.  Using a simple formula in these days of high powered computing seems daft. 

I don't see why they can't just give money back to those who jumped in very late and never played a hand.  Surely, they can't expect more?  Then after that calculate everyone else's refund.  It is too latte for last night, but introduce it for the future.

i just logged in and couldnt reg so thought i'd try to ctrl+s my way into a spin and go by opening an obsevrveable table.

best to try a micro stakes one first, so i opened a $0.25c with a $6 prize pool

the game was paused and the three were chatting away.

i was glad i opened that table
