Reindeer Games Final
The top nine from each reindeer games tournament will also receive a seat in the Reindeer Final.  This tournament will offer a $5000 grand prize and a prize pool of $20K total.  So with 10 reindeer games tournaments, that means the finals will be a $20K tournament with only 90 entrants.  That equals out to a $222 buy-in per person, if it was a buy-in tournament.
