Hello, i want to bring a scandal, that happend this weekend at the kings casino, to your Attention. As u could see had kings Casino announced the boyaa Poker Tour. The Mainevent should be a 200k gtd 1,1k buyin. Yesterday day 1a was started with 7 players. So after 2hours kings decided to Cancel the guarantee because of their terms and conditions. This is their Right and okish. So the floor fixed a now guarantee from 50k. Today they canceled the satellite for 1b and decided that there will not be a guarantee at all. I think this is A Joke for everyone who played day 1a. Opinions ?

Not sure if this qualifies as a scandal or not. It sucks, but apparently also something they have the right to do based upon gaming laws and regulations in that area.

Read the fine print; they're allowed to change the conditions of the tournament at any time they want for any reason.

There is a reason only 7 players showed up for 200k guarantee. Nobody believed the guarantee would stick. Also this speaks to the room's lack of experience and history with this type of tournament.

Whereas in Las Vegas during WSOP I played some at the Venetian deep stack events. Some of them were short $100,000 to $200,000 on the last day of play. Word went out and people streamed in to get the overlay. And the overlay rarely materialized if at all.

This happened at Foxwoods the day of a forecast blizzard. They were short about $90,000 of the $200,000 guarantee and said there was no longer any guarantee. But they offered players a refund option (which about 20 players took). During the tourney a number of people (including myself) complained to management. They offered free rooms. Still people threatened to never come back. Then they reinstated the guarantee and took the loss. Their reputation remained intact. And people trusted future tournaments.

From what I remember in DNegs Vlogs the first few days of the WSOPE ME were pretty sparse, mainly due to it being a weekday when it started most likely. But none the less they didn't 'panic' for that event and still made hay.

Lots of the WSOPE struggled to hit the projected numbers until very late in the reg period. It's possible that they got really nervous about this one and needed to make a decision before it was too late to get out of the proposed commitment. GL

PS .. Yes, it does sting a little for the Day 1A, 1B Players who put in the effort, but it looks like they have an outstanding buffet there and might be able to talk their way into a free one.
