Tiebreaker
   
  • In the event of a tie at the end of the tournament, the person closest to the tiebreaker (above or below) will be the winner.
  • In the event that there is a two-way tie for first place (after the tie breaker), the first and second place winnings will be split evenly among the two players tied for first place. No winnings will be awarded for second place. Third place will still get their cut.
  • In the event that there is a three or more-way tie for first place (after the tie breaker), all the winnings (first, second and third) will be split evenly among all the players tied for first place. No winnings will be awarded for second or third place.
  • In the event that there is a tie for second place (after the tie breaker), the first place winnings will be awarded to the first place winner and the second and third place winnings will be split evenly among all the players tied for second place.
