So Ivey won? Seemed to be more hype about patrik and ivey facing off in the finals than the actual finals itself lol

If YOU were playing this 25k event with 32 players and 800k prize pool, which payout would you prefer to play for?

How about Alt C where the 5 through 8 finishers each play one more match and the two winners of that "loser's bracket" each get $50K.

Personally I'd vote for that one. I think it kind of sucks to win two matches and then lose your third and get nothing but also don't really like four people getting their money back either.

+1 to this being one of the most fun tournaments in a long time. I really enjoyed watching the matches. Hope they do more similar things in the future.

The payouts were perfect imo. HU tournaments should payout pretty top-heavy.

Agreed. You only need to win 3 heads up matches to cash.

Great event! The bracket played out just as expected. Solvers are garbage.

if a solver bot played Ivey how much of a favorite would Ivey be? They should have had him in the Pluribus challenge
