Prizes for first through 3rd place are actually percentages
of the prize pool and are 50%, 30% and 20% respectively.
Therefore the actual prizes depend on the number of entries
and rebuys. In my experience, this tournament usually fills
up and pays the full amount.

Places 4 through 6 each receive free entry into the next
tournament or a $25 match play voucher.
