I don't know what to say...this is all so, well, unexpected.

I'd like to thank my father, for being such an obnoxious, sarcastic prick. Without his guidance, I could never have made the insufferably rude and uncalled-for post for which I am being honored.

I think if you don't cash in the tournament they should give you the 10k back too. It's only fair.

It's always interesting how people trying to be smart find amusig analogies.

Anyways I had two friends that qualified through PP and they were given the option to checkout early and recieve something like $200 a day. They didn't stay at the rio though, they were at New York, New York.

Yes, I just got a $910 refund from PartyPoker today, for checking out 4 days early.

YMMV.

I wasn't aware that party was doing this.

I was guessing that party and stars was making a profit on those players eliminated on day 1 who checked out early (some people do have 'real' jobs afterall).
Seemed like a decent strategy for them if you ask me.


I had been out there long enough (as I arrived a week before the main-event) and if I had known that I could have gotten a refund on my hotel-room (don't know if stars did this or not) I probably would have taken whatever cash they would have refunded me and headed home.

Ok, I'll admit it--I am astonished by this revelation.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go send a check to a Nigerian businessman, see a psychic, buy a Lotto ticket and go to church.

I don't understand why if Bodog was refunded by the Rio with MY money


why do you assume this?

i had family come at various times and was shocked at the cancellation policies they have in vegas.

as an example, i can make a reservation at foxwoods, the largest casino in the world, and cancel at 5.59pm the day i was supposed to check in and my CC will not be charged.

otoh, a place like the gold coast and bally's had policies of 48 and 72 hours respectively that was required for cancellation. on top of that, many online sites booked and prepaid blocks of rooms at discounted rates.

i don't think bodog would have gotten a refund even if a guest did not show at all.

I won my seat on Bodog as well and prior to the trip, I asked their rep (Bob) about this possibility. He told me that the hotel would be prepaid and that there would be no refund for not staying the entire time. I asked if I could have the $2500 and make my own arrangements and they were very accomodating.

The key is the word IF (as in a conditional sentence)

Do you see why?
