I was in the $33 turbo $2k. I imagine we will get our buy-ins back, but no refunds for all of the players knocked out. Idk what it is they do with all the buy-ins for knocked out players, but I know I've never been refunded more than just my buy-in back, and this happened a handful of times.

They have those 5 Million Dollar GTDs coming that always seem to overlay...

With $40 rake a head for every player in the $1M + the hundreds of satellites they run leading up to it, they make their money back for the overlays they've had.

It's simple, stop playing there, that's what I did when I got screwed. It's funny how they keep failing with everything. I suggest they hire someone who has played poker before, then they can see player's side of things and handle stuff better.

It looks like they do in fact do icm chops after late reg is closed. Got 25x buy in after my microdonkament was cancelled.

That day I got in all tourns I played for less than 25% cost. Avg
Winning the $109 seat for .25 helped that average stay low.
I usually give a few spins before paying. Not sure how many I've won though.
It's a losing prop overall but I've managed to stay ahead I think.
