I guess its only the same if two players end up with the same chip stacks for the cutoff position(s) - which is the only position it materially affects.

Sorry...I must be missing something.
This would seem to say that it"s based on stack size. Even though they have made the same % profit, one has made more cash than the other which is fine if that"s the way you are going...

In this instance I would rule that both would qualify for the FT as an exceptional circumstance, unless one wished to not play the FT of course.

This would seem to indicate that it"s not based on stack size as they have made the same % profit.

previous Legs have been "biggest stacks" that progress to the FT - participating and interested players have suggested that "most profit" is a fairer method - especially for Phase 1.
Your example or query of two equal profitable stacks but for differing amounts is only the same as if i had two players playing Leg 1 or 2 who finished up with the same stack sizes at the end of Phase 1 - say 2 players finished on £275 - who would qualify then.
I have said that for Leg 3 it will be profit - not stack size - so if there are 2 equal come the end of Phase 1, and these are the ones that decide the Final FT player, then i would rule both would qualify - which i would have done in Legs 1 and 2 where it was stack sizes not profit.
Paulie_D:
Cool.
Thanks for that...it"s much clearer to me now.
MintTrav:
I assumed Mark would say £100 profit > £50, so I"m a bit surprised by the answer.
Surely profit is measured in £? Percentage profit seems a precarious route to take. If someone doubles £50 to £100, where does that leave someone who starts on £200?
