Three-Way Deal Reached
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
After the elimination of Sheldon Mayer in fourth place, the tournament was paused as the three remaining players discussed a potential deal.
At that time, Trayner held the chip lead with 26,025,000 chips, more than double Boskovic's chip count (11,325,000), with Blatt sitting in third (8,850,000)
The original payouts were as follows:
| Place | Payout (AUD) |
|---|---|
| 1 | $1,667,050 |
| 2 | $1,001,000 |
| 3 | $635,250 |
Following a brief discussion, the trio agreed to an ICM deal. In addition, both Blatt and Boskovic agreed that each would give $25,000 to Trayner, leading to the following modified payouts:
| Player | Chip Count | ICM Deal Payouts | Adjusted Deal Payouts |
|---|---|---|---|
| Malcolm Trayner | 26,025,000 | $1,332,198 | $1,382,198 |
| Dejan Boskovic | 11,325,000 | $1,025,072 | $1,000,072 |
| Dean Blatt | 8,850,000 | $946,029 | $921,030 |
It was also agreed that they would play on for the trophy, ring, and title of Aussie Millions champion.
