That was a traveling financial arrangement and happens all the time, for example a couple of Yorkshire players might want to travel at weekends to all the big opens each weekend, they will often split all winnings.
I'm talking about deals or savers, use the above example, you are in the final and it's £3k for the winner, £1200 RU.
Players agree a saver of £700, both are guaranteed £1900 regardless and the winner gets an extra £400 for the effort, happens all the time with these stupid headline first prizes.
I was at a comp in Leicestershire once that was £1000 guaranteed for first and the rest dependent on entries, second got £150 LOL
