You are probably all aware that last nights 30k was cancelled with 13 players left.I was one of those 13 and i would like to air my views on what i call a shambles.
Although the game was open for any of the 13 to win the chip leaders must be agreived the pot was split equally between all of us 2.5k each.
I am wondering how this happens and why no one has offered an explaination or apology.
And how players using pokerplex skin were paid out within 10 mins but willian hilll customers like myself had to wait until 5pm the next day.
After 5 hours playing it was somewhat an anti climax and i will be moving from hills shortly.

Homer Huh?

wow, that sucks.
I've never experienced an equal split, usually ratio'd (sp??) as per chips.
Does anyone know why it was cancelled?
BTW welcome

maybe the dealers when on strike

or more than likely the software crashed and they were unable to recover the game

I'd be sick if i was chip leader. (bet the guy in 13th loved it)

I don't like VC poker much but i have to say when it happened on their site they had a quality system to divvy up the money. I think they call it half and half.

They split half the remaining prizefund between all players then the rest is divided as per the payout structure percentages.  I think this fairly rewards all the play up to this point, it did take about 6 hours to pay out but it definately seemed pretty fair.

unlucky homer, i was watching and you were certainly going well. Undecided
