i am not sure but i think you will find that if a person has been banned and then has been let back in by mistake the casino in question are leaving there self's open for a bo**ocking from the gaming board, so from thier point of view they must not allow him to re-enter as he is not a valid member., which could get the casino closed down. Also all grosvenor do state in their rules they must all display at all times that any-one deemed to have left the game will have thier chips removed from play and if in the money will be given the next available payout. We all agree to these terms in all games we play when we registar.

There you go, a man who deals in facts.

Guilty or innocent, he could find himself barred for life. Grosvenor have no obligation to offer an explanation

There is no right of appeal, no independent review of the evidence. Grosvenor are judge, jury and executioner.

Next week, it could be you or I. That's the scary part.

It's not just Grosvenor all casino's have no obligation to offer an explanation, as for the appeal he can approach the Gaming Commission if he wishes and they will look into it.

after speaking to Ali i got to say his ban was correct i doubt he will ever be aloud into a grov again, but i still stand by what i said in the begging the players were a disgrace in the way they let him be banned during a comp, i have been in this situation before and we refused to play until the player was reinstated, thankfully he was aloud to finish the comp,( but if he hadn't we would of done an equal split and he was a shortish stack!) but then had to make a hasty exit do not pass go sort of thing this is just 1 of the ways Danny is so missed in blackpool he would not of let this happen and would of come to a suitable arrangement

IMO : the blame for this disgrace lies partly with Ali for what he did, but also on the players for not standing up there is no excuse if i no the player or don't know the player i would not of let it continue there some really nasty guys on the circuit and it shows here i heard the excuse we though we might be banned thats just rubbish no way they would ban you for standing up for someone ignorant to think that in my view,


your talking out of your arse!, its funny how many hero's there are when they were not in the situation. there are so many factors which the players had to considerate, than for everyone to say just chop it up!  think your statement is bang out of order

well said action man

..... have posted on this subject already however

Grovesnor did not act well in this episode he should have been allowed to finish the comp however

those branding the other finalists(including Tikay) a disgace are themselves just that- a disgrace (for all the reasons that i have mentioned in earlier posts). Action man did not need to post an explanation here, he did so in detail so perhaps a little less abuse would be appropriate?

Its so funny how people have slated me for going against deals in the past, then change their minds on this situation and say that a deal SHOULD be done.

Use the same argument you have used against me when I have been against deals - "Its upto the individual playes involved - no one else!"

Well said Action Man btw.

Only read a few of these replies, but imo he was exceptionally lucky to be awarded 9th place. Regardless of the rights and wrongs, of the abnning (and I don't know the guy) he knew he must have known that he was banned when he entered the comp. He should have been given a refund and that is all. Definitely correct to remove the chips too, unless they are distributing them equally based on chip count as seat draw would have a huge bearing on the result.

The Grosv should not have allowed him entry in the first place, but once their initial mistake had been recognised, they couldn't act in any other way than to eliminate him.

Yes. From all Grosvenors, for the foreseeable future.

IMO

Most sensible option for the casino would have been to let him play the final and then impose the ban...

1) It would have been viewed as a correct and decent customer related decision.

2) It would have saved bad publicity and a lot of arguing and

 3) it would have proven to the poker playing/and paying  public..how sensible and forward thinking Grosvenor is....but Alas once again a lot of the common sense and fair play seems to have "left the building"

Will they ever learn?

Well you have had almost eighteen months to think about it.
