Live poker tournament chip counts and payouts, since 2025

• Window: events whose festival, event name or page title carries 2025 or later, plus later events naming no year.
• Grain: one row per player holding chips at the end of one event day.
• Cadence: rebuilt whole every week rather than updated in place, because PokerNews publishes no change feed to read from. The page list is refreshed daily from the PokerNews sitemap, so each rebuild reads the current one.
• Fetch gaps: 86 of the 2,583 listed chip and payout pages fail every time, the same pages each time, so about 3.3% are absent from each build.

• event_key, day_slug, entry_id: the event path, the event day and the player's entry, which the payout list also uses.
• tour, festival, event_slug, series_year, day_number, buyin_text: where, when, and for how much.
• profile_id, player_name, country_code: the player.
• game, game_source, game_confidence, served_model, is_bounty, is_turbo, is_team_event, is_heads_up_or_shootout, is_restricted_field: the game and format. game_source says whether the game came from the event name, the model, or neither.
• chips, stack_bb, big_blind, chip_share, stack_rank: the stack, in chips and in big blinds, and the blind it was played at.
• players_left, snapshot_chips_total, event_chips_max, chip_coverage, field_complete, field_share_1-10: the field.
• currency, places_paid, prize_pool, first_prize, prize_remaining, next_payout, in_the_money, payout_share_1-10: the payout context.
• entries, buyin, printed_prize_pool, ladder_pool_share, paid_fraction, min_cash: the field size and the shape of the payout curve. entries counts re-entries, as the event's own Event Info panel prints it.
• final_place, final_prize, label_status, final_prize_filled, final_prize_share: the result and the training label.
• self_reported, fetched_at: whether the count came from the MyStack app, and when the page was read.

Results join on the entry identifier, so no names are matched. label_status is pending while an event has no named winner. The sitemap lists a day about a day after it is played and omits some middle and final days. Rows reported at 0 big blinds are dropped as stale. stack_bb is empty where a page gives no big blinds. entries and buyin come from the payout page's Event Info panel, which 672 of 673 events carry. Of the 627 events printing a prize pool, 524 match the listed payouts within 2 percent, 16 print a guarantee below what was paid, and 87 print more, 18 of them bounty events. For payout shares, divide by prize_pool.
