That is the biggest bunch of BS crap of a ruling I have ever heard. How can anyone think this is remotely fair? So John's chip are lost, and what happens to the chips that are won by the genius that showed up on the wrong day? Does he take his huge stack to the event the next day? lol No, those chips were reserved for someone, and should be returned to the dealer. Will the guy whom the seat was reserved for get there late, and be pleased to learn he is chip leader at the table? No. What happens to the stack? 
 
Here's what should have happened, IMO. If play at all tables cannot stop, then at the very least, [B]the clock should have been stopped immediately [/B](freezing the blind levels) until the whole business was squared away. The spycams should have recorded all the play, right? Not sure what would be the fairest way to equitably redistribute moneys won or lost, and to whom. Perhaps start again from sctrach, like they just sat down, with a new bag of chips. Just as it is unfair for John to lose 1/2 or 3/4 of his stack to this guy, isn't it also unfair to John that others at the table may have have actually won a hand or 2 against same guy, and can now bully John? 
 
Here is one thing that is inarguably fair. Everyone at that table should have been offered their buy-in back (although I'd like to make that double the buy-in - it's only 4 stinkin' people). The dealer is their employee, and he screwed up.
