Because in that case, I wouldn't agree to anything, because while I'm honest, I don't trust anyone on the internet to be, and have little doubt that should my opponent win, they'll conviniently forget to transfer it, and I'm unsure chatlogs represent any binding agreement. That said, assuming it was all set in stone, I'd take a chop there. As you said, getting to the crapshoot stage, and your chip lead isn't so commanding that you have much leverage to argue for a better deal, or such that the risk involved in heads up is minimal.



I'm with you Gaz. What site offers a chop?????????? PM if your not allowed to say on here, Okay.

I think if you are guaranteed a decent amount already, especially if it's considerably more than your buy-in, tell em to get stuffed.

Worst case scenario is you make a profit... that's so so terrible to have to live with.
Pardon me, but I think you'll find that's a shovel. See you next Tuesday!

to me it all depends on the amount of cash it is, for anything less than $100 i wouldn't bother with a chop, but if it like for a $1000 difference then i would consider it

I'd chop for less than I was entitled to... it's just what I do.
