Dude turns down 160K on PS, gets 60k

I still don't understand why he didn't take it... There were 5 guys left, and he was offered $150k. The winner of the entire tourny only took home $152k.

Maybe I'm missing something...

Keep in mind that during any unanimous split pool, they (whoever is still left) are still playing for $30K for the eventual winner.

So during the first potential deal, the apparent chip count by the remaining five players with plasticard as the chip leader at that time, the cash would have been:

Lee Jones [Support]: Zutz: $100,472
Lee Jones [Support]: Pehtoori: $106,038
Lee Jones [Support]: lb: $110,592
Lee Jones [Support]: plastic: $150,595
Lee Jones [Support]: Garbanzito: $129,312

With $30K still in play for the winner, which at that time, could have also been plasticard if this player held on to his chips until the end.

After that fiasco, what really happened was this split pool of:

Lee Jones [Support]: $30K for the winner
Lee Jones [Support]: Zutz: $122,538
Lee Jones [Support]: Pehtoori: $134,484
Lee Jones [Support]: lb: $157,964
Lee Jones [Support]: GARBANZITO: $122,811

Zutz eventually won the tourney so he got $122K + $30K = $152K. But the tourney had essentially stopped with player "lb" as the big winner, $157K. You follow?

The sites should level the payouts more evenly at final tables so that all this deal making isn't necessary.
