After a few hands at the now 5-way table players asked for a pause to discuss a deal. The TD explained that in this event 10% of the official 1st place prize was the minimum they must leave at issue. Players suggested $10K be withheld instead, and they made an ICM chop (based on relative stack sizes).
Eventually the players agreed to the following deal:
- Kyle: $29,300
- David: $30,000
- Geoff: $23,165
- Johnny: $36,000
- Sol: $29,000
Players will continue to play for the bracelet plus $10,000 remaining in the prize pool.
