          I hope SBR pays out on the ties. I have two nice wagers on East.

              Props to MPaschal, B1Slick, and Unlearn for their efforts in the last 3 tourneys. Their Central team had folded their tents for the past 3 days but these guys showed a lot of heart even though it didn't matter for their team.

                  Didn't even think about that. Do they adjust the odds?

                    I would assume both East and West bets get paid

                      As I said, I'm guessing those wagers count as push. But we'll see

                          No they have to be paid. Either at listed or reduced odds but they will get paid.

                                Its been a few years maybe since I've played one of these, Was fun to see people cheering each other on and from what I saw every team was trying to pick each other up along the way its pretty cool. Its not always like that round here, well done guys.

                                    Yeah great series, even if the very end was a tad disappointing for us! But no question SBR really came up with a fantastic format for the finals of these World Cups, never see people get even one-tenth as energized about poker around here as the week of the Finals!

                                    Congrats to the East and thanks to all who participated, especially my teammates, we had a great run!

                                      It's a split bro. No tiebreaker.

                                          Yes, 5000 regular points and 2500 poker points seems logical based on splitting 1st/2nd prizes equally.

                                            AND ... this whole week of tourneys WITHOUT seeing a bet with a decimal pt after waiting for the timer to run down.

                                                Dead Heat rules should be used here. I'm not sure how it works exactly but I believe my +325 will be paid out at +162.5

                                                Team won and shared with another runner, half the profit paid.

                                                  Agreed phin, that was a pretty insane and dramatic ending! East, world or west all could have won and were neck and neck down the stretch. Cheers to all the teams great work fellas!

                                                    Can anyone at SBR comment about what's happening with those wagers? I got paid manually for some "World Cup Wager" which I assume is the wager I had on East (which I guess was paid out in dead heat fashion based on the # of points I got). But my two wagers on this are still pending in the sportsbook? Clarification would be nice!

                                                      Already explained that odds for East and West are both paid at 50% odds

I got paid manually for some "World Cup Wager" which I assume is the wager I had on East (which I guess was paid out in dead heat fashion based on the # of points I got). But my two wagers on this are still pending in the sportsbook? Clarification would be nice!

                                                        Ok, now those two wagers show as losing, but they paid out the one which "tied" manually (directly sent points instead of in the sportsbook) in a dead heat style format as I said. Seems fair - thanks SBR!

And scoring 3 wins with his only non-cash coming due to getting ridiculously coolered twice (one of which, was courtesy of me).

                                                                      Ok everyone who might not have cashed somewhere might be able to point to something unlucky, but his poor luck in that felt especially pronounced. And to come back after that and win three days in a row, especially when it mattered most - quite impressive!
