Like I said, I didn't particularlly care for it either, but it wasnt a huge issue....I had a chip lead, not a drastically significant one, but a chip lead... with everyone almost immediately agreeing that this was ok though, I kinda felt like it'd be a dick move to be like uh...no (slash I may have everyone gunning for me
 ) ... another point was the person who brought this up was not the short stack or the 2nd short stack.... he was either 3rd or 2nd in chips

Good and bad deal
The heads up deal was good and fair; it could have gone either way. Nice job refusing the three way, the numbers didn't add up for the chip leader.
The 5th place finisher deal I would have said no to, despite looking like a dick. This is poker and you have to have some degree of ruthlessness. When I play house games with my brother I tell him not to hold back on me because if I can break him I'm going too. If these were guys you normally don't play with and you were playing as well as you were why take money from the paid spots to add an additional spot. Your not being a dick if you say no. Good luck. |

Alternate deal
I agree with the heads up and 3 head choices. And if you want to be a nice guy, your choice for the 5th place guy was just that, nice; it wasn't fair for you at all and didn't seem like the best thing to do, but it was nice. If I were ever in your position, I would refute them with a choice of either taking a little from everyone rather than the bulk from you, or you don't agree on the deal. That way, either the others will take back their immediate yes's and side with you, or you will have more of the prize money that you earned as being chip leader.

Cirtainly as chip lead I think it was your call. Of course if you have already agreed to the terms prior to playing, I think it should be unanimouse.

The problem with this is that it is assuming each player will finished based on their current chip stack, which is not the case. Just because you have the most chips at this point doesn't mean you are going to get first place.
But I still agree that this deal wasn't in Zy's best interest... speaking purely financially, anyway. |
