With 4 players remaining, Mark Thomas Wells broached the issue of a deal and the clock was paused so that the matter could be discussed. After a couple of failed starts, the players agreed to look at numbers for an ICM chop – all the while reserving the required $3,000 and the trophy for the eventual winner.
Once accurate counts were determined and corresponding dollar values attributed to each stack, it didn’t take long for the players to reach agreement.
The players decided to each take the following:
- Mark Thomas Wells, $21,440
- Fazeel Munawar, $18,332
- Danny Rouleau, $13,655
- Cherif Si Hadj Mohand, $16,840
And play continues 4-handed.
