ITM, what happens if btn shoves for 1k, chipleader sb calls, and you're in the bb with 1k and decide to call and CL wins?

Maybe , but if lets say you both play board stragiht A2345 and CL has 6 you split. Not sure best hands wins though, i guess thats written in rules.

I had this happen the other day (Party) when it was 4-handed and assumed it would split it (but it didn't...). Me and another stack of equal size were all-in along with a shorty and a bigstack. The bigstack won the hand and took us all out, but when I checked in PT afterwards I could see no "odd" prize allocated (I was expecting one to be 1/2 way between a 2nd and a 3rd). I think there must be some other way used to decide (like best hand takes higher prize, or first in pot takes higher prize, etc).

Doesn't it go by chipstack?

IE:

Player 1: 1000
Player 2: 1005
Player 3: 1010
Player 4: 2000

Everyone goes all in, player 4 wins
1st: P4
2nd: P3
3rd: P2

That's how i always thought it was done....

**EDIT**
For equal stacks, I thought it was hands, but maybe it is order?

Was that a test tourney of some sort?

I would have thought that they'd allocate finish positions on proximity to button, like they do with the extra chip in an odd-numbered pot split.

It may even be different for different sites - looking at the above, it appears to have chopped the prize?

Since this is a 6man 2nd prize (35%) got split between the other 5 players, the extra 2 cents from rounding seemed to be chosen randomly between them.
