    This is only the second one I've played... So there were 45 people in it, and I just finished off my table of 4. So I'm sitting with 6000 chips, waiting for the other tables to finish.

    The people that win a 5 person table will have 7500 chips. When the final table begins, will the chips even out, or will they have more as a bonus for having to beat out more people? And will the blinds pick up from where the last table left off, or do they start at a certain amount?

    Thanks in advance.

    A shootout is just a series of single table SnGs. If it's double you play two of them, and instead of winning a 50% prize with 9 players, you win a much larger prize due to their being that many more players.

    Thanks. Just wasn't sure if there was a difference since the first tables were of different sizes. I can see that they aren't.
