I'm pretty sure Idonk is wrong and the 3rd winner is chosen randomly.

If all players go all in 1st hand in a DYM, then the winning hand obviously wins, but the other 2 are chosen randomly, and not seleceted by 2nd and 3rd best hand etc...

So im no nearer finding the correct answer

Yeah Idonk is wrong. If both bubble players have exactly the same starting stack, the bubble boy will be picked at random.

Hey everyone,

This scenario is extremely rare, however if it were the case, then the person with the 2nd best hand would cash.

The only time that the cash is randomly determined is if the two players that bust have the exact same hand.

Hope this clears things up for you

Lol well obviously they have changed it , and since they are so good at telling customers when they change things, they obviously let every1 know that its changed from random to the 2nd best hand

Who was right? Not sure Idonk has made it clear enough :-)

Here is another question for you? In the £9.60 4k bh direct sats sometimes these only start with 4 or 5 players but because of late reg eventually get close to the max 25. So if the starting 5 went all in 1st hand would the same apply and top 2 hands go through?

It must have changed then.

2 or 3 years ago dantb10 asked a very similar question and LML organised an infamous experiment. After several DYMs in which all 6 players went all-in on the first hand (apart from Maxally, who 'accidentally' folded) the conclusion was drawn that 2nd-6th places were drawn at random.

It was an hilarious thread, I'll find the link if I can.
