Basically, when you cash out in a tournament they give you a slip for the payout dependant upon your finish, you go up to the cashier place, hand your slip, and give your money. If a deal has to be made at the WSOP, the players have to rely on the trust of the others afterward to actually make the deal. They have to trust people they have never met before in their lives to give a portion of their rigid (actual) winnings like a chop never happened, and put the money in their hands. Seems to be asking a lot, no?

Alternatively, they could just accept the payout structure, play out the remainder of the tournament and see who wins.
