Default How not to deal at the final table

From tonights big tourney on Stars:

DaPhatAce had a lead of:

Seat 7: gunnygirl (967560 in chips)
Seat 9: DaPhatAce (7657440 in chips)

when heads up play began. He agreed to a 50/50 split when the chip count was:

Seat 7: gunnygirl (3577560 in chips)
Seat 9: DaPhatAce (5047440 in chips)

DO NOT EVER DO THIS!!!!

Dealer: Game #2993831871: gunnygirl wins pot (126000)
Administrator: The tournament has been manually paused
Dealer: gunnygirl doesn't show hand
DaPhatAce: 50/50
gunnygirl: oki
DaPhatAce: Hey gunny
DaPhatAce: its been a pleasure
gunnygirl: yup
Lee Jones [PokerRoom Manager]: So listen guys - you can do whatever you want, but you need to leave $10K on the table.
gunnygirl: tanks the same
gunnygirl: oki
Lee Jones [PokerRoom Manager]: So you want to split the remaining prize money equally, is that correct?
DaPhatAce: yes
gunnygirl: y
DaPhatAce: so split 210
DaPhatAce: 105 each
DaPhatAce: and we'll play for the other 10g hows that gunny
gunnygirl: we have to play f 10k
Lee Jones [PokerRoom Manager]: yes, you have to play for $10K
DaPhatAce: some incentive to that
gunnygirl: its fine of c.
DaPhatAce: okay
DaPhatAce: I'm good with that
Lee Jones [PokerRoom Manager]: Right now there's $210,800 you can split
DaPhatAce: But i have to admit this is the first time i play heads up for 5g
DaPhatAce: yes please split that
Lee Jones [PokerRoom Manager]: So you get $105,400 each, and then you play for $10K.
Lee Jones [PokerRoom Manager]: If you both agree to that please say "agree"
DaPhatAce: Agree
DaPhatAce: gunny your turn say agree
gunnygirl: agree
gunnygirl: with all da pfat says
Lee Jones [PokerRoom Manager]: Okay - excellent - thank you both.

Ace obviously sucked HU trying to bluff at the wrong times and calling when he knew he was beaten.

It was funny how he rufused a deal 3 handed but once he realized he was outclassed he gave in. But congrats do both of them.

If you aren't good heads up then push every hand. Don't agree to a horrible deal and admit you are no good heads up. How he made it to heads up is beyond me.

Calls all-in with QT suited for almost his whole stack and loses. Calls an all-in next hand with K5 os. Great way to blow tens of thousands of dollars.

If so, hes smart to accept the deal. Especially if money are meaningful for him.

Missed it, but could he have at least tried to get more? If I were him, I would've asked Lee to do the ICM calc and then said that that's ridiculous and I clearly needed more (quickly, before the other guy got a chance to do the same [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]). Then I would have grudgingly settled for the ICM deal.
