....how does the first person eliminated in a BH leave the tournament with a head prize?

That's what has happened in tonights £55 9pm game, according to the lobby. My simple brain can't work it out.

Just checked via Gary's results thread and not as far as I see.... the first person with a head prize was 5th or 6th out iirc... first player out got no head prize.

Yep, ignore me. For some reason my lobby was showing the first person out had also taken a head prize, but just loaded it again and its changed.

Couldn't figure out how that would be possible

If the game is still in late reg it does not list the exits in the correct order, could that be why?

It only orders them with a number at the end of late reg

Nah, he admitted he was wrong... and a dunce

OK, so we've cleared that one up. But am I a dunce too?

Explain this; on Friday 6th March this year MattBates won his own tournament, the Matt Bates Invitational (aka the 10-30pm £55 Speed Bounty Hunter). There were 52 entrants, the starting stack is 5,000 chips. So the winner should finish with 260,000 chips right?

Not so this time. Matt had a stack of 210,980 when he won. So what happened to the other 49,020 chips?

This is about the third or fourth time I've seen tournament winners left with an odd number. Sometimes there are even decimal places.

Copy/paste from the Tournament Results Thread. I've haven't doctored anything.

The chip stack wasn't 4k back then? That would make the total chip stack of 208,000 and a 2980 difference

Yeah, you're right actually. It was 4K the days before and after.

Confirmed dunce already

But the question still stands. What happened to the missing 2980 chips?

Matt Bates is SHORT of chips shocker!
