Unlucky but well played mate!!

How much did he get?

£10,000

Everyone down to 6th gets £10k now.

OK having thought about it, I can see no other reason than "peer pressure" that has made the chip leader agree to this deal. What other reason can there be?

The deal has been done for monetary reasons of the short stacks as the diff is so great in the prize money at the lower places- I understand that.

I also understand that the tourney had become a bit of a crapshoot, BUT the deal has INCREASED the crapshoot factor has it not? I mean, the short stacks have NOTHING to loose now until the money starts to increment up again. Fair point?

Now the C/L may (well not may,, WILL DEFINATELY) get callers from short stacks that he otherwise would not have got - increasing those "outdraws".

Even in the short space of time playing live, I have noticed that deals have become MORE often and MORE players left reaching a deal. 3 years ago , the most I saw was a 3 way deal. NOW you have all 9 at a final table making deals, even 13 as is here!! Where will it end? Make the money and split it 27 ways equally?

Hope that sounds ok

Let he among us who is without sin cast the first stone.....

fancy that.. Paul raging off on one because a deal was made

Next time you are at the final table all you have to say is "no deal chaps".. and that is it. Why let other peoples actions bother you... its not like you should have any reason to be annoyed

i think it was not a deal. just a better way of paying the money out. 240 runners £2.000 for final table  spot is not very good in a big one like this

Seat 2: Matt Cartwright
