I mean, you ARE going to the WSOP, all expenses paid.

Jus' sayin'.

What is that supposed to mean?

Suppose you're playing cash games, and the cardroom's web site states that the maximum rake per pot is $4. Then you win a huge pot, and you notice that $6 rake was deducted from it. If you posted a complaint about that, would it be reasonable for me to reply, "well you DID receive that big pot, jus' sayin'"?

I think it means that Party is delivering what was promised.
Your example is totally off the mark.

He was promised, and is getting:
1. Entry into the WSOP worth $10,000
Yup
2. $1,500 spending money
Yup
3. Luxury Hotel for 10 nights
Yup

Unless you claim the MGM is not a "luxury hotel". I guess it is open to debate.
The OP signed up under the above conditions. Party is delivering them. Now he is itching.
Of the 10 nights, he has gotten one off for $200 and can knock another 4 off and get $800. Most "prizes" don't give you that sort of option. You got 10 days, use them or loose them.
So at debate is a 5 day stay at the MGM, including a weekend, at $200 a night, taxes included. You might want to check the MGM websight and see what they are charging for that Fri and Sat. Big whoop. Massive overcharge, right. Out of a $13,500 prize package.
