Another way to distribute could be places: First Place gets 10, Second Place gets 8, and third place gets 5. How this works? For each person who participates, gets +1 and for each win gets an additional +1. So a chance for +2 every battle. If you manage to reach above 10+ points, the ante comes into play: If you lose, it's -1. So if you have 20 points, and you lose, you will drop to 19. The top three will gain the rewards, and it may not even be the same three at all.
