The statement shown by "the operator" (WPN) when the tables were closed specifically stated that entry fees of remaining players were being refunded.
Wow. they covered their tracks pretty well too....lol. Do this a few times a day and everyone's happy....the four players who were eliminated figure they were eliminated so they don't get their buy-ins back and don't complain about it.....the five players who are left only get their buy-ins back and really can't complain too much since there were still 5 players left. that means the company just made 4xbuy-in by simply cutting the tourney short. And when a player wishes to complain well, that tourney is not in his history so he can not really file a formal complaint by saying "its the tourney before that other tourney i played were I made 3rd place" LOL.....
Sounds EXTREMELY SHADY to me. This is assuming, of course that the eliminated players did not, in fact, get their buy-ins back. Since the tourney simply POOFED and disappeared from existence, one wouldn't even know who the players were in order to find out if they did in fact get their buy-ins back (unless you run pokertrackersoftware or some other HUD which documented this particlar game). But even if you did run a hud during that game, you would not be able to contact those players directly anyways unless you hunted them down by observing games they were playing and chatted them up during their game play.
I smell A RAT....
