In this, the final installment of If They Chopped It, we can tell you that if the remaining prize pool was split evenly right now, each player would walk away with $3,322,531. This is slightly better than fifth-place money and is almost $300,000 more than Raymond Rahme picked up for his third-place finish just a year ago. Not that you needed more perspective, but this amount is also more than any champion prior to Greg Raymer received for a first-place finish.
As we reported a few days ago, the prize distribution is very "top heavy" in this year's Main Event with a total of 50.7 percent of the total prize money awarded to the final nine players.
