Well done! How did you go about making the deal? Do you call a manager and do you have to keep playing while a decision is being made?

both players sat out to effectively freeze the game. once a deal is confirmed in chat and agreed by both parties we freeze the remaining prizepool and credit the accounts accordingly.

it would be nice to have a more user friendly method.

i.e. when an MTT of a certain size gets down to x players, there is an option in the client where the chip leader can propose a deal which pops up a summary of proposal to be accepted or declined by other players.

would take a lot of dev....

we basically slowplayed every hand while waiting for the manager to get back to us. it was a bit risky because he won all the pots that we checked down and he could of just changed his mind about the deal whilst waiting for the manager. i suggested siiting out but he said slowplay. hopefully there is a better way to do it in future

WD Wills,

Well played nice to see two PPP players contesting the money in a network-wide tourney.
