Default Mansion stole $65,000! (Possibly $100,000)

Mansion had a $100k guaranteed at 11:00 today. Only 350 people joined and after the 3rd hand they cancelled the tournameny citing "Technical Problems" (note all cash games were running fine) 5 minutes later the tourny was removed from the list.

It has now been about 30 minutes and my buy in still hasn't been refunded.

Mansion is plugging these 100k "Guaranteed" tournys all over their site and software i think its absolute bull [censored] that they can cancel it because they don't want to lose that much money.

Does anyone know anyone high up in mansion that can rattle some cages?

Did it strike you that they possibly had technical problems? It is possible (although it does seem fishy).

Anyhow, lol at having the patience to wait for all of 30 minutes before making this post. Have a chill pill.

what's the buy-in?

I'm sure if you send them a polite email you will get a refund.

If that's true, that's pretty classy and indicates there's no scamming whatsoever going on.

Btw, will they start running these daily at this time in addition to the standard ones at 20:00 GMT?

Let's not forget about the $5 million they gave away with the Pittsburgh $1000 bonus.
