IMHO it makes sense to make a request especially for folks like myself who intentionally stayed away from Vegas; I was willing to forfeit Diamond Open & the 3 CSI Open fees out of concern of covid-19 community spread. I did make a credit request as I hope this alleviates the immediate burden for...

I have some commentary at the FB post linked, but also made a back up PDF of the CSI covid-19 blog post w/ all the user comments / community outrage preserved. In short I decided to not attend the CSI / BCA events in Vegas after a March 6th phone call with a CSI representative which led to...
