Hi, Yesterday i played a satellite on betfair (2x 3euros ticket), in the lobby it showed the total prize pool of 7.56 euros..
The 2nd place awarded 4.56 euros and the first place only the 3 euros ticket..o_O
When we were in HU it was so strange, I was CL and I played to finish second..lol
I don't know what the explanation would be, or it was the room's mistake, or I didn't understand until now..
The prize should be 1st- 3euros Ticket + 1.56 and for 2nd- only the ticket of 3 euros.. no??lol follow the lobby print to evaluate with me please..!
Something similar has happened to you?
Does anyone also play poker in the berfair room?

Usually if the prize pool is larger than the GTD amount of tickets, additional tickets will be granted. If the prize money isn't sufficient for another ticket, there'll be additional payout prizes for next ranks, so in your case it should have been:
1st: 3€ Ticket
2nd: 3€ Ticket
3rd: 1.56€.

In this case, when player 3 busts, the HU doesn't play and both players are awarded their ticket.
