Tuesday, October 5th: "Final Table Finish" Ends In Eleven-Way Even Chop, Tournament Schedule Gets A New Addition!!!

ICYMI: The $250 No Limit Hold'em "Final Table Finish" ($10,000 GTD) is known for it's incredible structure and payouts, and now has another "claim to fame."  Last night's installment became the first to end in an eleven-way (even) chop.  It's difficult enough to get eleven people to all agree on the same thing, especially when it comes to money, and potential payouts from a poker tournament.  The event attracted a total of (179) entries, and had an official prize pool of $37,232.  The top nine places were scheduled to reach the money, but as the field approached the money bubble, those remaining agreed to an even deal.  Everyone walked away with $3,385 or $3,384, and 16.27 leaderboard points.  Official results from the tournament are listed below:
