Based on 116 players, final prize pool should be $44,080 if the two 2.5% deductions are from the pool instead of total buy-in. $12,500 for first is 28% which is the same as PartyPoker's 27.5% and a little lower than OLG's ~31%. Fallsview has the worst/steepest prize structure that players complain about in that even with 600 players, ~27% of the pool goes to one player, higher than any onlline site I know.
GTA Poker;358380 wroteI know 12 paid and first was (only) 12.5k...I thought it would have been a larger first place prize for 116? which should have made a 44k prize pool.
I have no idea what a standard payout % structure is in a live tournament, but I would have thought first would be a bit more?
