Is it OK to reach a final table deal in Ixgames events ?

It is ok to be not willing to agree go for the gold! Oh yea you guys played great sunday way to go guys I hope to see "some" of you again on the final table.

pokerplayer wrote: Yeah, same to u .. gg ... actually I was somewhat reluctant at first but was willing to go with the majority ... I wanted to bring the issue up to see if the host had any feelings about it. (someone said that ixgames wouldn't want us to do it... so lets find out 😉 )

Final table deals are legitimate and happen often. Had one happen in another tournament I played yesterday. Unfortunately, it happened just after I busted out. But I was willing to deal if the others were, but not everybody wanted to at that time. . .[/FONT]

You have 3 different formats to chose form:

1) Independent Chip Model (ICM)

2) Chip Ratio

3) Custom Deal

Im reading all the details at FTP to fully understand every step.

What happens when 1 player at the final table doesnt agree, but the rest does ?

Any other rooms offering this feature?[/FONT]

However, if IX doesn't care, then "woohoo" for all those that make the final table and agree. You don't have to agree if you don't like the deal being offered and can return to play. Easy peazy...

[FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"]Well, if it makes you feel better to hold a grudge because one player didn't see the advantage -- or maybe he saw it as a disadvantage -- so be it. . .

It doesn't change the fact that the option exists and nobody can be FORCED to take part if that player -- or players -- want to play it to the end, win or lose. . .
