They chipchopped 4 handed when Steve was in 2nd.

3handed, Steve had 200/900k, and one guy gave each player 10k to give him the win, so Steve took 3rd I tihnk.

They chopped 4-handed by chipcount. Steve was slightly above average and got 87.5K. They played on for the 25K WPT championship seat and bracelet, but then 3-handed the chipleader (John Hoang) offered both Steve and the other guy 10K each for the seat and bracelet. Steve being the shortstack with 200K/900K obv accepted and the other guy eventually accpeted as well. So Steve won just under 100K total.

The chip chop was kind of marginal but the payout structure was insane enough I was fine taking the low variance route (read: I'm a huge nit). The second deal was obviously a no brainer. Thanks for the sweat.

Steve
