Hierbij mijn verkregen antwoord. Wel itm geraakt, maar mijn stack werd van 15bb , naar 8bb gebracht door deze disconnect time.
Hello Rick,
Thank you for contacting PokerStars.
We appreciate you are frustrated about disconnecting during this event.
We have reviewed your request and note your finishing position received prize money. Unfortunately we cannot consider any additional compensation as there is no way of knowing what your final position may have been. Normally the only refund method is to return the tournament buy-in to all players, but since this means you would receive less money than you already have, permitting you to keep your winnings is the best option.
Please note also, at the time of your disconnection, the remaining players at your table continued to play without difficulty. This indicates the disconnection was not our site freezing but was a localised disconnection problem related to or near to your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
We are afraid that disconnections like these are completely out of our control and a part of the inherent risk of playing online poker. In fact we clearly state this in rule 18 of our tournament rules:
18. By participating in a tournament, a player accepts the risk of Internet disconnection, due to problems with the connection between their computer and the servers, lag or freeze or some other problem in the player's computer or the Internet. PokerStars does not accept any responsibility for a player disconnect except in the case of a server crash."
The complete set of rules list is available on the PokerStars website:

We apologise for any inconvenience, and thank you for playing on PokerStars.
Regards,
Danielius J
