Unless he's quibbling about the fact that $150,000 is less than 5% of $3,012,500 ... it wasn't

It was 433K + 225K = 658K left in the prize pool.
They had to leave 150K to the winner, and each get 225K (2nd prize) = 58K left.
The chipcount was 24-36 so takt shold get 225K + 0,60 * 58K =260K
and AB should get 225 + 0,40 * 58K = 248K

Sorry my bad English

I read a debate concerning whether the 5% was supposed to be of the total prize pool, or of the prize pool remaining between the two players. Lee Jones thinks it is of the total prize pool. Personally, I don't think it makes much sense to prevent players from making a substantial HU deal.

I don't think there's anything to prevent them from making a substantial HU deal, just that PS won't facilitate / enforce it.

edit: & the tourney lobby states "Any final table deal must leave at least 5% of the prize pool on the table". I read that to be the entire prize pool...

5th all-in. Twice takt was way ahead, the other times he was drawing live. Can't win.

I guess when you've got 260k locked up you can't complain about running bad, but damn I'd be pissed if I was tak.

Lee Jones [Support]: Hi takt - we've reviewed the numbers. They're absolutely correct. You get $260,184.82 , illusive gets $248,648.93. You're racing for $150K exactly.

Anyone else think they should change the 5% rule about chopping?
