An online qualification for the Malta tournament through 32 Red, made this player win a very impressive amount of money. How nice it is to earn so much money with only a few dollars because of qualifying tournaments. Is very beautiful and next time he may be a BRM member who will win a good sum.
Wonder what the chipcount was on both sides when they decided to struck a deal, these high profile live tournaments almost always end up with a heads-up deal in one way or another, most likely the people playing in the finals just happy to be there in the first place so any money is good money for them.

I didn't watch the moment when they made that deal and how many chips each player had, but there is a video where you can see this. In my opinion the difference was not so great, because nobody accepts a dea,l when he has more chips than his opponent. https://battleofmalta.com/videos/
