Determining second and third place

[dasryt]

How do you determine second and third place if 3 players are all-in on the last hand? Incase you are paying out prize money on 1st, 2nd, third

If the chip leader wins the final hand, the person that had the 2nd highest chip total before the hand gets 2nd, and then the smallest stack going in gets 3rd.

thanks, that is how we did it. I thought it would have been a tie.

we all agreed that is was probably dumb of the 2nd chip leader to go all in anyway. He should have just matched the low man. That is why I felt he should lose second place. he obviously felt he had the winning hand so technically the second and third chip leaders lost all their chips on the last hand
