Prize pool for todays MQF not right

Postby bennymacca » Sat Jul 10, 2010 6:46 pm

Garth,

there are currently 72 runners registered for the MQF

for some reason though, the prize pool is listed as 2438, which is enough for only 53 players.

as a result, it says that there are 3 packages available instead of 4.

whats going on? is this just an error in the way it is calculated?

It actually did say 4 packages paid at one point, not sure when it went haywire.

Apparently there was a power outage in Gibraltar and someone made off with $1k of the prizepool while the lights were out. :o

Not sure if fourth ended up getting the ticket but I came 5th and the money I received was much higher than that listed in the payout structure but fell in line with what 5th should have paid if the correct prize pool was showing. To my way of thinking while the payouts and the prize pool may have been incorrectly listed in the lobby in the end the correct payouts were made so no issue. Can anyone confirm that 4th was paid correctly? Sorry if this makes no sense not really with it this week due to a huge bout of the flu :(

No I didn't sorry Garth but what I can tell you is that for 5th I was paid over $150 instead of the $56 which was listed in the lobby.
