Can you please explain further.
Thank you
I'll go ahead and talk about one point I feel krush was referencing.
Take a look back at the previous threads about server problems and how WPN went about paying their players in tournaments that were cancelled. There were several instances where tournaments would be cancelled, and players that were knocked out wouldn't get their buyin back but players that were still left would just get their buyin in back. So what happened to the rest of the money that was in the prizepool after the players that were still left got payed? I haven't been following those threads in a while so I'm not sure what ended up happening but at the time it happened it appeared the site just went ahead and pocketed that money. A thing you have to understand about this is that a bunch of these tournaments were running for several hours and many people were complaining about it not being fair that they just got their buyin back, which they rightfully should be upset about. So even if the site didn't pocket the money which I don't know where it would of gone if they didn't, the players with high chip counts still lost out on a lot of value.
The interesting thing about this whole server issue thing is that in most cases it happened went WPN was experiencing several overlays, some which involved several thousand dollars in tournaments. So was it just a coincidence that these server issues were being experienced at the same time that there were major overlays hitting across the tournament schedule? That's for you and others to decide.
