I am at least intrigued that they still keep those fees even if they did nothing to deserve them. This is pure theft.

Never even thought of this before, but you're totally right.

This. Pretty sure I got refunded my tournament fee as like 1 month ago.

Unless I'm missing something, they do return fees to anyone who is still in the tournament. That's fair.

Yeah, because he works for them and gets a portion of the fees. If you had his job (which you probably dream of), you'd do the same thing.

Thanks for making a really old and non-funny joke though.

Pokerstars employees work solely for the integrity of the people. They keep them for tips I think. Its all for the greater good guys. They need to feed their families etc.

From Pokerstars site:

Rollback
In this case, we are "rolling back" the tournament as if it never happened - if you were registered for the tournament, you get your buy-in and fees (including rebuys, add-ons, and knockout entry if any) refunded.

Dumbest thread ever...how come not closed...
