Who Gets Second Place
Top 3 Beginner Rooms
1 table, 3 players remaining
Player #1 goes all in with $10
Player #2 goes all in with $15 (a side pool of $5 is created)
Player #3 sees the $10 and $5 raises
Player #3 wins the hand and game, gets 1st place money
Who gets the 2nd place money
- players #1 and #2 split it?
- Player #2?
Answer: I understand your question but let me adjust it slightly so it is clearer:
Player #1 goes all in with $10
Player #2 goes all in with $15 (a side pot of $5 is created)
Player #3 calls
Player #3 wins the hand and game, gets 1st place money
The rule for this situation is that the person with the second amount of chips, gets second place. So in the example above, Player #2 had more chips when the hand started so he gets second place and Player #1 gets third.
