Pay-outs on the fast fifties

[pcgnome]

Am I just paranoid or have they been taking out more rake from the pot out fast fifties at Carbon? 1st place is 2.25 & 2nd place is 1.35. I thought it was 2.50 for first place, and 1.50 for second place.

Or maybe there are fewer players now. 9 instead of ten.

Yep, they lowered the number of players from 10 to 9, hence the lower payouts.

It so stupid how they lower it from 10 to 9. I like it how it was, especially in the bounty one. You can't even win back your buy in from coming in third no more

if they lower the players wouldn't the prizes increase instead

Prizes for sit n go's are based on the number of players. 10 players x 50 cent buy in = $5 total prize pool. 9 players x 50 cent buy in = $4.50 total prize pool.

Does't matter they lower the players but not increase the buy-in

I would guess the whole idea behind lowering the number of players would be get them to move along faster. Full-tilt had nine players w/their SnG's
