Arizona State Poker Championship canceling the event in progress because of flooding. - Page 2 - Poker News

I just don't like their decision to actually pay out money according to icm for only 1 day they were able to get off. To me that's absurd. The event is canceled so refund everybody and cancel it correctly.

they were supposed to open today and can't. Contractors working the cleanup say it's a mess, water was 4' deep in the electrical room.

No no no. All of the Day 1a prizepool was ICM chopped by the remaining players. All players who had purchased entry to day 1b and 1c are able to get their buy-in refunded.

Oh, then clearly the teams of architects are responsible for such outrage.

They should refund the prize pool to everyone still remaining in the first day field based on ICM (as is sounds like they have done). But they should refund the rake equally to everyone that entered.

It's likely that the limiting factor is the space being used for the tournament. What do you do if the ballroom or whatever that is being used is booked for the next six months and there are no other viable places in the building?

What percentage of the field do you think is flying into the tournament?
