Well, basically we did a deal which saw chip leader (DoctorGonzo) take $70 and everyone else took $40. But in doing so it ended the game which we didn't think would happen and so the screenshot reflects where we were when the game ended but obviously not necessarily where people would have finished in terms of points. So at this time, there are different opinions on what should happen in terms of points but this is the screenshot anyway.

[Andy]

DoctorGonzo will get 12pts, everyone else who came 2nd will get the number of points available for those positions where they could potentially have finished added up and divided by the number of 2nds.

I know I was out in 9th, how many people were still in when the deal was made? Or another way of asking is who was the last man out? I will knock up the points based on that.

7 were left when the deal was made.

I think Nin (kaarejava) was last out in 8th.

[Andy]

Points are awarded as follows:

DoctorGonzo = 12
WobblerTGT = 7
Leon0285 = 7
Slimtgt = 7
dwTGT = 7
musicboxtgt = 7
stevo33tgt = 7
Kaarejava = 3
AndyTGT = 2
Norgechester = 1


Because for Norgechester, Andy and Kaarejava those are the points we would always have had no matter what, so thats what we still get now.

DoctorGonzo gets 12 because he won it, no matter how you look at it, he did, he got most $s, FullTilt think he won it, he won it.

Now overall per game there is 58 pts given out so we need to give out that many total in this game or it is not fair on anyone who didnt enter tonight. So it is not 10 points to everyone who came 2nd. Also there is a long way to go and so it is not that where that SShot has you is where you actually came. The "deal" that was taken at FullTilt gave everyone in 2nd the same $s, so they were all judged to be the same, so they all get the same points too. So I have taken the available points for places 2nd to 7th and divided them by 6 to give 6.66 average each. That has been rounded to 7 points each.

I hope that is a satisfactory way of doing it and everyone can see why that formula was used. I will update the main Table shortly (well tomorrow).

[dw39]

Seems good to me.

Like I said in chat, bar Gonzo who was way in-front in terms of chips, anyone could have came 2nd/3rd and cashed.

2nd to 7th's chip stacks simply weren't that far apart.

This seems the fairest and most logical way of doing things.

My opinion

[wobbler]

I would still have preferred 7½ points.

[leon]

yeah it was close except gonzo

Gonzo had 16770 12point

Wobbler 7380 10points
leon 6485 8points
slim 6030 7points

dw 4885 6 points
music 4790 5points
steve 4660 4points

can you imagine the contraversey if dw music or steve win the league by 1 2 or 3 points lol

Musicbox - what was the "deal"?

[musicbox]

Basically when there were 7 of us left, slim suggested a deal which would see the 7 of us (rather than the top 3 only) take a share of the pot. So as DoctorGonzo was winning, it was suggested he take $70 and everyone else $40.

This is done by everyone remaining ticking a box on screen on the left side to say "do a deal" and once everyone has ticked it then a new screen pops up where the person with a star next to their name can input what the deal is (it's like a grid you see).

So $70 was typed in for Dr and $40 for everyone else. Then the deal gets sent to everyone for agreement and once all agreed the money is paid out BUT the game ends there and then which we didn't know would happen.
