Hand for Hand play?

[Precept2]

Hand-for-hand play can be used when you are about to break up a table (when you're in the money) as well.

Yes, if the top 12 get paid, and you're down to 13, tables should play hand-for-hand until you've got 12.

If you're now down to 10 and are going to go to a 9-man final table, you can have your tables play hand-for-hand so no one table gets hit with the blinds more than the other.
