Kiwikaki wasn't sponsored, he could buy in 10k and he sold about 50% of his action to friends (20% to Fayth, specifically)

Man, I would never do this. Would feel so bad to have a 2mil+ payday and give 75% of it away to taxes and stakers.

Duhamel, the winner of 8.9 mil last year, was splitting action with almost all his french canadian gang (including Fayth).

Keep in mind they're sharing action, so its just lowering variance for everyone, if you bust out then you can still get action from someone else, vice versa.

Canadians dont pay taxes on gambling winnings, lotteries etc.

Better odds of cashing and making money, but when you can afford the 10k buy in, I personally would not split action as if you made the final table I would feel bad having to pay off half or however much to others. Im greedy but ya, makes sense in someways.

Downside being you make for example 500k instead of 1 million, but still your making money but all depends I guess how you look at it.

Yeah consider that if Kiwi did not and Fayth cashed then Kiwi is out the same amount of money. There's no real downside.

Chip counts tend to only list named pros or higher profile players.

Since there are still more than 400 people left they can't keep track of everyone yet

There's ~250 people who aren't. Probably too much for them to keep track of all of it.
