Tourney Player Storms out Mid-tourney!!?? (38 Viewers)

If it's a multi-table event, I'm not really worried about balanced stacks. A player at table one could knock out multiple players, then get moved to table 2, and tables aren't chip balanced anymore.
Me either. I've heard this point mentioned in a few different circumstances, with the implication being that it's somehow unfair if chips become unbalanced between tables.

How much energy are people really supposed to put into determining and enforcing this idea of tables being "chip balanced"? Is it even a reasonable expectation? Once chips start moving around and players have to move to balance seating, it's basically a given that chips will be out of balance between tables. IMO the TD should have to follow a prescribed rule to move players rather than concerning himself with how to preserve chip balance.

Sometimes things are going to be subject to chance. It's a gambling game, after all. If the situation came together procedurally or by chance, it may advantage or disadvantage someone, but that doesn't make it inherently unfair.
