    Can poker-sites offer the above facility for SnG's / tourneys? I believe the option should be availabe esp. in Sn'G's when they are down to the final 2. As anyone who has played these know, they become a total crap-shoot because the blinds are so big - a deal option would suit both players.
    Maybe because of ethical reasons deals are not allowed online but if they are allowed we should have them.

    Sites do offer this, just not them all.
    Also, it is pointless in a STT. Wastes time for little outcome.

    yeah it is, BUT...I dont think the sites can do anything about it, If the manager / supervisor was not there to oversee the deal there would be very little you could do about it AFAIK, now you could post on multiple forums blacklisting the player and tell others to watch out for him but that don't put the money in your acc. and you'll get alot of smart arses saying " ah well, it's your own fault for trusting him" etc etc

    I was in a situation like that on stars where neither of us would give in to the others request to win the tourney and let the other transfer the money, so we got a manager, took about 2 mins and the money was sorted nearly straight away
