~$90k in overlay... But over 1/2 million in Tournament Fees. I think they're going to be okay.

So the tournament restarted but without rollback of stack, just blinds but we were still 4-handed. 🤬

And then finally this:

Great, after loosing another 10k of my stack due to this silly game play, we'll be refunded. 😂

At least I hope they make it fair and use the starting stacks of day 2. 🤯

A good friend of mine was in this with like 90bb and his stack was first reset to around 45bb and now they cancel the whole thing 😅

Let them not fool around with such tournaments when their software cannot handle it.

That's crazy. The problem was just with that event, right?

They said so, but I can't tell for sure. I wasn't playing other tables.
Yes it seems so that only this tournament had problems.
I watched "Knüppels" (German poker streamer and known poker player) stream on twitch and only this tournament was closed.
He played other tournaments like that, they have not been closed.

Indeed...first they postpone it for a week due to server problems and now it's cancelled. Obviously someone didn't do the job right.
I can only imagine heads will roll in GG's tech department 😅

Maybe it would have worked if they weren't so greedy to prolongue the buyin period to even out the overlay

I just received a message about my refund.

At least they made it fair and refunded based on the starting stack of day 2.

So this is my result. It's a decent amount, so I can't complain but still a bit sad I couldn't hold up with my great start when I had 40k chips. 🥺

Anyway, I'm happy I made a decent cash. 😎

Congratulations on the result! You have experienced a lot of bullying, it is frivolous from the GGPoker house.

It's better than if they said it wasn't their problem and told you all to go to hell.🙈 A good money.😊

Do you think it's better to focus only on one format like cash or MTTs when starting out?
