Congrats of the cash and victory.

I dont chop for the most part. I dont play for the money but the win. This said I have chopped.  There are times it's just worth the chop. If I had your stack at that final table, I would accept a chop if it was worth if.  Lets say 1st is 2000 and 2nd is 1100.  3rd 700 and 4th 400.  If we were 9 handed and they offered me 1300. Even with such a chip lead we are not guaranteed to get the win. Just getting slightly better than 2nd would be worth it to be.

I once was 2nd in chips with 14 left when we were asked to chop.  I was offered about 3rd place payout and was happy to take it.  Why? the blinds were just about to go up next hand and I was in the BB next.  The blinds were going to double and my 9BB stack would become 4.5 entering the BB.  There were alot of players juts looking to bump up and the possibility of my not making the final table were real. Next pay out was under 1000 and i was given somthing like 795.  I took it for the bad structure the casino was giving me.
