    I was watching ft of the 100k on UB. Dip and another dude were heads up, Dip had 448k the other dude had 337k. They asked for a chop from support, numbers came up 27k and change for dip 26k and change for the other dude. First was 32750 second 20960 making a total prize pool of 53710.
    The chop didnt sound right to me, Dip had 57 percent equity in chips, he should have gotten a little over 30k.
    Am I missing something, doesnt make sense to me. I have never chopped one up, but it seems he got shorted too me.
    Great job by Dip, as I am writing this he is second in the 200k with 82 left on UB.

    i think, atleast on stars, they give each player 2nd place $, then divide the rest up by chip count.

    That would make sense then. Thanks for clearing it up, still does not seem real fair that he had to give up so much when he was ahead 3-2.
