"50 Billion: Super Sit & Go Tournaments
For Sit & Go players there will be five special 50-man Super Sit & Go tournaments running 24/7 from September 10-25 across a range of buy-in levels that suit all players and bankrolls: $1.10, $5.50, $11, $22, $55. The winner of every tournament gets a slice of $50,000, shared out between all the winners at each buy-in level.
Keep a look out for the 50 Billion Super Sit & Go’s in the PokerStars lobby by clicking ‘Sit & Go’ and ‘All’. Example:
Over a 7 day period (Why a 7 day period, this runs for 16 days), there are 1,000 winners at the $1.10 level. This means each winner will receive $50,000 / 1000 = $5. Uh, you failed at math?A player who manages to win 5 of these tourneys, would earn 5 shares of the prize pool (5 x $5 = $25).
The Super Sit & Go prizes will be paid out by September 27."

Do I just not get it or what? this makes no sense. I mean if the prize pool was split so each division got 10K (50K/5 buyin levels). And then this was split in to 2 5K buyin levels per week. THEN their math would make sense.
No big deal really just thought it would be fun to mix it up from 9mans and get a bit of overlay... but now I'm lost. I'll email stars if no one can show me how I've got it wrong.
I really tired. Is stars a bit stupid? Am I a bit stupid?

Each division gets 50K.

That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

That's what I understood but their example was irrelevant and math was way off so I was confused. Thanks.
