Was recently in final table in my local card room with 3 people remaining. Was a Friday night 40$+10$ buy in with above normal amount of players. roughly 4200 prize pool. 1st 27% $1100, 2nd 18% about $750, 3rd 10%or $420. about 2270. I had a 50% of chips and other two 30% and 20%. They offered me $800 and they each take $735. I denied it and they seemed mad (not that I cared) and going on and on about how its 2am, we would all be profiting. But I felt I had a skill and chip advantage. around 3 am the two go all in I get out of way and smaller stack busts. At this time he has a slight chip advantage. He offered me a 50/50 split of $925 and I took it. I know in this scenario it worked to my advantage to hold off but in the long run is it better to make deals? Also was it the right move to just take the split and not play heads up?
