*'''[[Split]]ting''': The act of two or more players sharing their winnings from a tournament amongst themselves. It typically happens in innocuous contexts where the tournament could not finish (such as the tournament's venue closing before its conclusion), and so all players that have not yet been eliminated from the tournament split the pot. In more grey cases, it happens when two or more finalists no longer want to play at the end of a tournament and so agree to split their winnings, then play their remaining set(s) with halfhearted effort. In clear malicious contexts, it can involve a player agreeing to intentionally lose to another player in exchange for a portion of their winnings, often in a conspiracy to eliminate a third unrelated player that one of the two splitting players has an unfavorable matchup against. | *'''[[Split]]ting''': The act of two or more players sharing their winnings from a tournament amongst themselves.
