Interrupted Tournaments

If for any reason we have tournaments which are not able to play to a natural conclusion, affected players will be compensated using the formulas detailed below to ensure the fairest distribution of funds possible.

In all cases eliminated players do not receive a refund.

For all the tournaments cancelled due to technical issues or prior to their start, all the players still registered will receive a refund of buy-in + fee.
