Top 5 plus a definite on the $300 for last place...hardly takes anything away from top 5.
1st - 7500
2nd - 3000
3rd - 2000
4th - 1500
5th - 1000
last - 300

Thinking precisely the same as you.

Top FIVE and $300 for last place gets my vote too.

How about 3 plus the loser

1st 10k
2nd 3k
3rd 2k
last gets the rest, it would give some of the players something to shoot for in the latter part of the season, it's just as hard to pick losers when there's something on the line imo

i would go with top 7 or 8 (maybe 7 for your stats), but definetely more than 5 with the big pot.
And definetly AGAINST last place paying.. we want to see the best..if you are able to pick loosers on purpose , why not get the winners?

Doesn't really matter to me. Top 7 sounds about right with 46 contestants. You want the players in the middle of the pack to have something to shoot for in the last 3-4 weeks so top 7 seems fair.

$7500 is one sweet pot considering the last two years pot was approx. 2500.

Top 7 for me and I am 4-0 right now! I shouldnt want more than 5 with this record early, but maybe give 6th and 7th their money back. No reason to get too greedy,

I'm pretty sure 1 st. place last year was $ 3400.
Since there are more players this year, an increase to 6 or 7 seems right in line with what We have been doing the last 2 years. I like the $ 300 for last as it's kinda a no harm... no foul type gesture and is good for laughs !
Besides We like to keep Fishhead involved in the contest !:103631605 :toast:
