After seeing this very blatant collusion, I emailed party saying this is obvious, please close these accounts and refund me at least my buyin.

I think Stars would take the money away from these two and give it to the 4th/5th place players.

They said they'd look into it and respond within 24-48 hours four days ago, so I called today and they said they need more time but likely won't refund me anything. I think I deserve at least my buyin back.

Has anyone else had this situation -- what did Party do?
