Early in a small tournament with a regular that has developed a friendship and connection with the tournament, sounds fine to me.
If it is a larger buy-in event, I think the chips/buy-in would have to stay. Depends on how close the participants are to each other. Perhaps they are nice enough to pass a hat around and lessen the sting. If he isn't a regular, screw him. If it is later in the event or he is an extreme low/big stack, sorry dude. Split or forfeit your chips to the table and see ya next week.

Friendly decision that I am sure no one would object to here, but they should have left his chips on the table and his entry fee in the prize pool and blinded him out. If the poker room wanted to be nice and comp his buy in, that is up to them.
When this will become a huge issue is when one of the November 9 can't make it to the final table someday due to ______. I'll be interested to see how they handle that situation. |

Yeah what TP says is pretty much correct. A few years ago I bailed on tourney chips in a fairly social game at the University ($100 entry). The table adamantly refused to allow me to sell my stack to a guy that wanted to play, and they blinded me out.

I agree 100% with TP, leave the chips, blind him out, and poker room pays the refund if they want to.
