Re: Odds of Party collapsing on Saturday?
[ QUOTE ]
wouldn't my PartyPoker account work like this if they keep it in a segregated account?

What you are describing is a segregated account (which you mentioned in the quote above)
Unfortunately, Party doesnt keep your funds in a segregated account...so the scenarios you've listed above do not apply in this case.
On the other hand, a site like PokerStars has made it clear that they DO keep a segregated account for all of their players' funds so what you describe above is true for them.
If you are asking why Party doesnt keep a segregated account? I'd imagine they feel they could put the money to better use with limited risk to their customers (much like a bank does with loans, etc. except obviously Party's risk is much higher than a banks although I still imagine its fairly low)
