Default Think of it in Poker/Economic Terms...

I'm not a tournament player, so I'm not sure what the buy in is or how it works. but let's say you value the seat at $180 (that is, the most amount you'd pay is $180) and the guy is giving it to you for $90.

that means that he'd have to actually get you a seat only 50% of the time for it to be a break-even exchange for you. just because you got screwed this time doesn't mean you made a poor decision. it's obvious from your AIM conversation that you were aware of the risk involved. it sucks, but that's life.

Party should freeze his account pending an investigation per the following Party chat box statement:

This is a violation of their t&c and Party CAN have funds frozen.
