We reserve the right to cancel any tournament that is announced, registering, or in a pending state.
Tournaments that are in progress that require cancellation due to a variety of possible factors (server issues, widespread connection problems, power outage, ISP network issues etc.) will be cancelled, and a player who has been eliminated prior to the cancellation of such tournament will not be refunded any amounts in relation to such tournament.
Players who were not eliminated at time of cancellation will: (i) be refunded any Buy-in, knock out fees, rebuys and add-ons which they have purchased in relation to the cancelled tournament; and (ii) share equally (regardless of a player's chip count) the higher of (a) the Buy-ins, applicable knock out fees, rebuys and add-ons purchased by those who have been eliminated prior to the cancellation of the tournament; or (b) the guaranteed prize pool less the amounts distributed in (i).
Notwithstanding the paragraph above, in the event that a tournament is cancelled while still in progress, WSOP.com reserves the right at its sole discretion to refund players who were not eliminated from the tournament at its time of cancellation using a formula based on: (i) a player's chip count; (ii) the prize pool structure; and (iii) the prize pool actually collected from players or the guaranteed prize pool.
For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that late registration is still open after tournament has begun or the tournament has not materially progressed and such tournament is cancelled, WSOP.com reserves the right not to refund to players still in the tournament any shortfall between the prize pool actually collected from players and the guaranteed prize pool.
In such circumstances, players who were not eliminated from the tournament will be refunded within the next couple of days following the tournament's cancellation.
Down in DE. Registered for the $11,111 guarantee. Looks like all of their guaranteed tourneys tonight are way under rolled. Wonder if this crash was intentional.
