You had a probable top 3 finish snatched from you. But let's not get carried away regarding our bet, as I would have cashed as well & you would still be trailing.
I cant register for the 11:15pm tourney.
At the very least the makeup tourney should be password protected, with the remaining 13 players receiving the password via PM.

That would be nice for the guys that didn't have any chips.
Short of them being able to redo the tourney with exact chip counts that are listed here, I agree a "chip-chop" is the fairest thing to do. Not ideal but it's far fairer than what they seem to be proposing (i.e. a brand new tournament with 40 people all starting with the same stack).

The breakdown provided is exactly what real money online poker site would do. It pays out a total of 2002 points, hell can even take the extra 2 off mine, I don't even care if I get poker points to rollover. 175 out of confederates so 350 (or 348) would put me on the team instead of having to do well in the last 6 days through no fault of my own.

they should do like nascar, and invert the standings between segments -- ie, whoever had the best car and finished 1st in one segment, is put at the back of the field for the next, 2nd, next to last, so that the faster cars will have to work their way back through the field in the next segment....
as sbr programming generally relegates the finish of the final table directly converse to where you came into the final table (ie, if you were 9th, u generally get second; if you were 3rd, u generally get 8th, if you were 2nd, u wind up ninth), it would be fair to put the leader --WHOEVER THAT WAS, AS i HAVE NO IDEA-- in 13th, 2nd gets 12th, 3rd, gets 11th, 4th gets 10th, etc. etc.
low man with small stack gets 1st and the 600 pts that go with it, 12th gets second and the 375 pts, 11 th gets 3rd, and so on.....
that's how sbr's programmed bullshit would have turned out.... and if peavy was in it, he gets first b/c he's the golden boy; adjust the others directly inverse to their chip stack size..... RULING FINAL....

They update a excel spreadsheet once a day, so takes 3 minutes. Then they ignore anyone else here and even threads they make asking questions.
You want them to do a breakdown like this? Ha you're funny. They'd rather make stupid ass monkey videos.

Still waiting for my password Sammy, since it's obvious there's only 13 players who qualified for this makeup tourney.

Pretty sure this will be open to all but I won't be playing in it. They didn't do anything about the last one this happened to so why would they do anything different?

To learn from their prior mistakes, it's not a complicated fix.

I'm wondering how many have not seen this thread (in Player Talk , but not in Poker forum - see post #7).
