I LOLd at this update on Pokernews:
Upon seeing Chan's hand, Hellmuth began berating Chan who calmly called the floorman and asked for Hellmuth to be given a warning. The floorman told Hellmuth not to direct any obscenities at Chan and play carried forward as Hellmuth continued to rant to himself.
GOLD!

Keep going Terrence

Good luck bud!

Nah, he was very focused on the game. Didn't wanna bother him.

Nah, they're all getting paid because the buy-in is a sunk cost by the time you're approaching the bubble. Revenue that doesn't exceed cost is still revenue, it's just not profit. But to fix the terminology and avoid the semantics discussion, I'll revise it to say 15 percent will get a prize while 12 percent will get paid.

But more importantly, the top prizes will be remain at least the same size as before (and more likely be larger), while you have no removed the incentive to stall at the bubble – which is the real purpose of the discussion, and the crux of my question.

I guess this is a question that I should have put into an email, since it seems unlikely they'll revisit the subject based on the forum discussion.
