Description Usage Arguments Details Author(s) References Examples

Runs the desired number of Texas Hold'em tournaments, and saves the results. By default, only the top 3 finishers receive payouts, and their payouts are 13, 8, and 5, respectively.

1	many1(name1, decision1, k, winners1 = 3, payouts1 = c(13, 8, 5))

`name1`	names of the players
`decision1`	codes governing the players' betting
`k`	number of players
`winners1`	number of top finishers receiving payouts in each tournament
`payouts1`	payouts for the top finishers

If length(name1) < k or length(decision1) < k, there will be errors.
