Hey Party_Rep, you guys need to look into your company not honoring our tourney tickets. I understand the reason why you guys don't want to convert the GSSS tickets, but that is our ****ing money. You guys ain't messing around in Costa Rica on this one. This is regulated poker and I'm sure that means you can't just rob us of our ****ing money. You guys want to change rules, then say so before the fact. Where does all the GSSS ticket money go that went unredeemed? We will not let this issue die down so give us our ****ing money right ****ing now.

I received several of these emails during the GSSS;

Quote:

Congratulations on winning a GSSS II ticket!

Your GSSS II ticket is currently sitting in your account ready for use in one of the upcoming Garden State Super Series II Events or Satellites. Log-in now and register for the next big event and turn your ticket into a winner!

If the tickets weren't going to be converted to tourney dollars, all you guys had to do was add that information in that email that I received several times. Something like, "Use your tickets before they expires". These NJ sites are worse than the unregulated sites. And it's not even close.

Thread title is misleading. They aren't stealing them, they are converting them differently then they said they would.

Let's do this the right way, not act like children.

I'm not even upset and I kinda jumped the gun on this thread without knowing all the facts. This thread can be deleted if possible.

See if you can edit OP?

A thread with things that aren't true (or at the least inaccurate), made with the intention to make things look even worse then they are, is not good for the NJ players, and it's not going to help you as an individual either.

I know what you are saying pokerfun but if its not stealing its really close to it.

its going to cost them less to not convert to T$ and instead give out Tourney tix. just in the tix that will not be used will save them thousands i bet.

they are being cheap if not thieves.

and really all they had to do was tell people b4 the series and theres no issue. the fact that they didnt is calculated, sneaky, and wrong.

Secondly, that is hardly a sufficient response. What about the people who can't devote every waking hour to playing down those tickets in the next two weeks? What about the people who wanted to use their tickets on the last day of the series, and then got screwed because they were getting disconnected? Their solution is to force those people to play when Party wants them to play? Not when they actually have the time to play or want to play? I don't think that's reasonable.
