The rest goes to the "tournament staff" which are the floormen on duty.

It's also the ones OFF duty, it gets split about seven ways; most of the ones getting a cut aren't even there at all.

Honestly, I could care less to ever deal these things again. 10 minutes of setup, an hour to deal, 5 minutes of taking it down. There 3 downs of my day gone for 23 bucks + whatever I get tipped, which is usually about 15 bucks. I could make more in decent/good live games than these things.

Agreed. Much more in live games.

I wouldn't even play these things because the prize structure is terrible. It's been suggested to go to $50 + 10 and payout 250, 150, 100 (500 prize pool, 50%, 30% 20%). Who knows if it will happen though.

I have personally seconded the motion that this is the best way to go with these things, but then it's obviously not up to me. The current $50+$5 with only $450 paying out is very deceptive, and I get quite tired of explaining where the extra money goes over and over again.
