In the Money or Not?

We checked our National League of Poker account today, and it indicates we finished FIFTH in Wednesday night's big game -- NOT fourth!

Fourth place wins $10 cash. Fifth place wins no money (as you'll recall from last week).

Good thing we snapped a picture of the tournament scoreboard, seconds after we were eliminated. It was a double takeout, so that may explain any confusion. In the meantime, we're appealing.

The difference between ten dollars and zero is, well, ten dollars. But it's also a matter of fairness. Maybe even ethics.

Keep in mind that if there are five players left and two players are eliminated on the hand, the eliminated player finishes 4th and you get 5th. Example, A and B fold. Player C (5000 chips), Player D (4000 chips) and you (3000 chips) go all in. Player C wins the hand. Player D finishes 4th and you get 5th. Players A, B and C fight it out for 1st - 3rd. I bet that's what happened to you.
