     EOY tourney will consist off all monthly winners (multiple monthly winners receive no benefit). 

 

EOY payout is designed for winner-take-all.  HOWEVER, FINAL TABLE DEALS are in play and players may negotiate a different arrangement.  Table Deals came in vogue this year nationally and discussion of it heightened when the WSOP decided to delay its final table for a few months (believe me, there is a ton of traffic out there on this issue if you decide to Google).  Speculation began that the final participants could collude during the hiatus.  Like Harrah’s, the league encourages the final table to leave at least half the prize purse up for grabs to the winner (but this is not required.)  EOY FINAL TABLE deals simply need to be agreed to by all players still in the game (2-11 player deals are possible).  NOTE:  Also like the main tournaments, TABLE DEALS for our monthly games can not be allowed since these are ‘satellite’ games where final seats are in play.  Participants agree to not make table deals in the Jan-Nov tournaments.  All we have is the honor system to police.
