Take the split or go for it all. Updated

so my dumb arse league allocated the payouts for a 12 person $100 league as $800 for winner, $100 for second. ($300 was spent at the draft getting wasted and eating chicken wings). The inevitable bargaining has begun to guarantee money. One suggestion was we each take $300 and then play for the final $300. Do i settle or go for it all. Could also each take $450. heres the matchup: my team is Gordons of the Galaxy

Usually there's the offer but it's rarely accepted.

Are you above him in waiver order? Use your claim to block him from picking up the DAL RB & beat him.

Your team is better, especially if he doesn't have Randle

Big discrepancy btw 1st and 2nd. I'd do the 3 and play for 3.

One or two week final? If one week, I'm taking $300 and playing for $300 as there is so much luck involved in a one week matchup. If two weeks, I'm playing for it all.

I've done it only a few times when the situation warranted it. Last year I didn't realize the league I joined played a single week championship on week 17. Both teams had players that were going to sit after the first quarter to rest for the playoffs. We split and played for money. I ended up winning but didn't have any regrets because it could have gone either way.
I think you're matchup looks good but I thought mine was really good last week as the 1 seed then Charles and a few other didn't produce.

Gamble. You've made it this far.

Since you have the better team, I'd go for it.

I like getting some guaranteed money.

I would probably play it out. If I do a chop, it would only be for 200-250 and then play for the rest.

I took a deal. Payout is supposed to be 350 for 1st and 50 for 2nd.
I had great teams in 2 other leagues and lost almost all chance at big payouts. I had no desire to lose a third and walk away from this season with $50 from playoffs.
We decided on $225 for winner and $175 for loser. I'm pretty happy with that for sure. If I hadn't lose in the semifinals in my two bigger money leagues, I might not would have made the deal.

Mathematically you shouldn't chop. You'll make money long term due to how much better your team is than his.
But I wouldn't fault you for chopping a portion of the pot.
