Re: Board edit
What this is a cover up of is that one could not find out about the charity aspect of the event on the website as was claimed. Also, the vig was not fully disclosed on the website, and only partially described on the structure sheets at the tournament. The fact that there was partial disclosure of the outrageous vig charges does not in any way mitigate that the problem was that when players signed up the sign stated that this was a 2500+100 event. Players tend to read structure sheets for structure information, not to find out if there are an addition 350 dollars in hidden charges. Most players get and read structure sheets until after signing up, so this does not change their false advertising case in the slightest. If they do not come forward to make this right with players I will contact the Attorney General for Nevada, as this is a clear case of deceptive advertising practices. The clear fact that they changed the structure sheets after the fact shows a knowledge of their liability. I suggest they change their tact, apologize for what I believe was originally a honest series of mistakes, and discuss what will be done to rectify the situation. Otherwise, action will have to be taken that can only be detrimental to their ongoing business concerns.
