When Zenith daylongs were introduced, only top 30% received a reward. Posted Image
But recently it seems that the pool has been increased to top 40%. Posted Image

However, I noticed a strange thing with 2025-05-08 Zenith daylong results. There were 987 tables and 294 prices. If my calculations is correct, it is approximately 30%. But should it be that 40% gets their money back?

Looks like someone forgot to update this in the tourney configuration, I've brought it to the attention of the appropriate people.

Sorry about this -- it was an error in the About file. The format is 52% to top 30% (not top 40%). Fixed it, thanks for pointing it out.

It was 80% when launched, 70% in January 2023, and 52% now.

Was this change to payout announced at any point? Or were the games just stealth-reduced in value?
