To buck the trend of shooting down the original poster, I actually agree with him, guaranteed SHOULD mean guaranteed. IF there is a minimum numbers of players required, it should say so very clearly in the tournament description, if not it should certainly be stated in the terms and conditions of the site (I don't know if this is the case or not).  I have ion the past had this very argument with the head of customer care and have copies of Email correspondence where I was told they would change the lobbies to include the minimum number of players required, this has obviously not happened.

lol this is jokes. How do you expect a tournament/satellite to run with less than 2 players? How do you expect to win a tournament that doesn't start? Incred

I don't, I expect the site to get their descriptions correct

it didnt start because they cancelled it,
i understand that i cant play on my own.
i understand that the poker site cant give away seats
i understand that they cant throw away money tourney after tourney.
what i dont agree with is the actual guarantee.
the guarantee is there to attract players like the big buy in tournaments, if there was no guarantee, nobody shows!
so when they guarantee something and they have overlay they take it on the chin and move on. like the ukipt in edinburgh,
so dont guarantee a seat and cancell a sat if only one person registers,
the point that you seem to keep going back to is not the point that i was trying to make, its all about the guarantee. like your warranty on a car, you wouldnt be happy if your car breaks down and they wouldnt fix it because they guaranteed you something.

I partially agree - personally I wouldn't expect the site to run a tournament with less than a minimum of say three runners, however...... if they are advertising the tournament as a guaranteed prizepool, I would 100% expect them to clearly define the terms under which that guarantee applies

yes but the point you are missing is the guarenteed seat can only be awarded if the tournament actually loads up and starts. without any runners its not possible so where have they commited a crime. icant keep repeating myself any longer so that is my last word.

I stand by my original point.

This whole thread is ridiculous.
