I think it was thoroughly investigated. The problem being that there was no hard evidence of cheating by the winner. There was evidence of cheating by the 2 who got DQ'd. What is left are assumptions...

I did read it and saw this line, “Not getting a response on being able to see the plays of the competitors that I thought may have committed some improprieties is disconcerting,”. So I will admit...

The tournament is not designed for the limited capital average player.

Perhaps you should enter twice and find a few friends. Otherwise stick to the local lower level tourneys.
