I made a similar deal over a year ago. There were 6 of us left and i was chip leader and had 30% of the chips in play and I demanded 1st place payout and that I would play out to first and bust them all out
, I told them I'm going to the bathroom and they can decide what they want to do... table negotiated I came back and they offered that I could split the difference between 1st place and 2nd place,
I accepted

During a break, I had a player try to talk me into making a final table deal where we don't play against each other...
I told him no, can't do it, it's collusion
Never make deals like this, you can get disqualified for it. I've seen it happen once. We were in the bathroom during a break, final table, two players were talking about not playing against each other and saying, "Okay if you raise I will fold..."
Tournament director was in the crapper and heard them, once break was over we sit down at the table he immediately picks them up and says, "I heard you two colluding in the bathroom, you are both DQ'd." They started to protest and he said, "If you don't leave right now I will permiban both of you"
coolest thing I ever saw, unfortunately, he no longer works at my casino
wish more TDs were like him...
