So who this 2143 players ?

Day 1 b ?

Day 1 c ?

Does any one has brake down of Day 1a-1b-1c?

Why are you asking a guy who is just linking his back to one of his own posts about...who cares what?

No one knows who the 2143 are right now, of course, but maybe someone will figure it out if they know the day breakdowns.

There were 1212 on Day 1A, but I haven't found any 1B/1C breakdown yet.

867 players started Day 2.

if you re-entered 5 times then you are considered 5 separate entries

I can understand not getting paid in 1A if Lusardi didn't play (but I won't turn down a freeroll :P) but for the people that played in 1B and 1C if there is some amount of them that don't get refunds while still playing in the same day as him I can definitely see a ****storm incoming, I'd be surprised if this doesn't end with a lawsuit

It was a colossally busy day at the Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa in Atlantic City yesterday, as thousands of players competed in the ambitiously scheduled Day 1B and Day 1C of the series´ opening event. Following Tuesday´s massive turnout which resulted in 1,212 entries into the unlimited re-entry tournament, a further 2,094 entries were recorded in the first of Wednesday´s two sessions, with the numbers unknown as yet for the second session of the day.

http://www.pokernewsreport.com/chris...ng-event-15498

So if all that was correct, it would break down as:

Day 1A 1,212
Day 1B 2,094
Day 1C 1,506

Of course we have no idea how many from each flight cashed, as it's likely they aren't being refunded, but the numbers would make sense for a refund of all Day 1B who didn't cash.

judgement has been made and people are still speculating... yikes

I'm just curious to know the actual breakdown of players to get refunded - 1B+1C? 1B+1C+1As who made day 2?

Only $19,323 to each of 27, pretty horrible decision.

It looks like its going to be 50.8k coming out of borgatas pocket per person and then 19k from the prize pool chip

You are not subtracting the number of people who already got paid. Everybody who didn't cash is getting a refund.

"Pay prize awards, in the total amount of $50,893, to all entrants who were awarded a prize but who have not yet been paid"

I can't make sense of this statement. What does it mean? How is it different from the 27 left?

Haven't read EVERY post so this may have been answered.

What about people who fired multiple bullets? If someone fired a bullet on day 1A, 1B AND 1C do they get their full $1680 back?

So it seems that they are refunding all of 1B non-cashers and 1A+1C Day 2 non-cashers

That's sort of what I understood too, but I suppose it means the 50k is chopped up between whatever mystery number of players there are in this circumstance?

each time you re-entered is a separate "entry" - however, 90% of 1A and 1C won't be refunded

There's only been about 20 posts since the ruling was posted; you might be able to get through them all if you try really hard.

What makes you think 1A+1C Day 2 non-cashers are being refunded? Not saying you're incorrect, but I'm wondering where you got that from.

Edit to add: It would make some sense, though.

No - I still take it to mean they will be paid out as to the original schedule for wherever they busted. More just a statement saying these funds are released and people are now free to retrieve their prize.

As part of the final 27 $20,000 would be an atrocity.

just an educated guess based on the numbers. Would make sense seeing as the number of people to refund is higher than the number of entries on 1B. We can deduce that the difference reflects the players who made it to Day 2 but did not cash as they were technically affected by the fake chips as well.
