Title: DRF - WCH Tournament
Post by: texasturfmaster on May 08, 2019, 02:15:26 PM: Does anyone know why DRF cancelled the 2019 WCH Tournament? Received an email from them this afternoon offering a refund for the value of the qualifying seat.

No reason given.

What\'s next So Cal raising exotic takeout rates to cover shutdown days?
