Payouts & chops

The Payouts screen calculates prize distribution based on buy-ins and lets you handle end-of-tournament chops.

Prize pool

The top of the screen shows three values:

• Total collected — The sum of all buy-ins, addons, and rebuys. This is calculated automatically and cannot be edited directly.
• Adjustment — Add or subtract from the total. Enter a value between -1 and 1 to apply a percentage (e.g., 0.1 for 10%), or enter any other number to add/subtract a fixed amount (e.g., -50 to remove $50 for a venue fee).
• Net prize — The final prize pool after the adjustment is applied.

Note

Bounty chip purchases are not included in Total collected. The bounty pool is kept separate from the prize pool — bounties move directly between players when one knocks out another. See Bounties for details.

Payout positions

Below the prize pool, you’ll see the payout table with a row for each paid position. Use the + and - buttons next to the payout count to add or remove positions.

Each row has:

• Position number (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.)
• Percentage — Editable field for the payout percentage
• Amount — Calculated from the percentage and net prize

The percentages are auto-generated based on the number of positions, but you can edit any percentage manually.

Rounding

The Round to nearest field controls how payout amounts are rounded. The default is 1 (whole dollars). Set it to 0.25 for quarter-dollar precision, or 10 to round to the nearest ten.

Chops

When remaining players agree to split the prize pool, you can create a chop. Chop cards appear in the payouts view showing each agreed split.

Tap a chop card to open the chop settings, where you can choose from four methods:

Even chop

Splits the remaining prize pool equally among the chopping players.

Chip chop

Divides the prize pool proportionally based on each player’s current chip count. Enter each player’s stack size and the amounts are calculated automatically.

ICM chop

Uses the Independent Chip Model to calculate each player’s equity. Like chip chop, you enter chip counts, but ICM accounts for the non-linear relationship between chips and tournament equity — having twice the chips doesn’t mean twice the equity.

Custom chop

Manually set the exact payout amount for each player in the chop.

Note

For chip and ICM chops, you’ll need to enter each player’s current chip count. The app calculates the split instantly as you type.
