Is there a good deal making calculator/software or something out there?
3 way at the end of a $50 / 240 person tourney. Chips counts are: Hero: 396048 Player A: 146768 Player B: 177184 Prizes: 1st - $3,240 2nd - $1,956 3rd - $1,080 Hero made a deal for $3,100 and the other two each got $1,588. How can I deal if this deal was +EV? Was it? I thought it was. |

You don't need a special calculator to see that's a great deal for Hero and a weak deal for the other 2.

First give everyone $1080 (minimum you can win) then distribute the rest of the pool (3036) based on the proportion of chips each player has. Comes out to:
Hero: $2750 Player A: $1698.87 Player B: $1827.13 |

How are people this bad at deal making? I was watching a final table on Stars ($5.50 quadruple shootout) where all 6 people -- including the guy with 2x average stack -- agreed to split the money evenly and leave a couple hundred for 1st. It got down to heads up, the same guy had a 2-1 chip advantage, his opponent offered to split the $200 evenly, and he accepted. |

The beneficial deal making for a big stack is to do a chip count deal. There are other threads out there on how to do this - search for deal making/chopping |
