    Again, mulitiples of 1-6.

    If total number of players end back to 1 (1,7,13,19 etc), pick table 1

    If total number ends at 2 pick table 2

    If total number ends at 3 pick table 1

    If total number ends at 4, makes no difference

    If total numbers end at 5, it makes no difference.

    If total number ends at 6, it makes no difference.
    Analyze what happens with 14 players:

    The first 12 are logically placed 2 on 1, 4 on 2, 6 on 3.
    Player 7's best choice is 3.
    Player 8's best choice is 2.

    What are the payouts?
    Table 1 players get 1,000/2 = 500
    table 2 players get 2,000/5 = 400
    table 3 players get 3,000/7 = 428

    So your strategy of choosing table 2 in that case is faulty.

    The solution for players > 6 is ALWAYS choose table 1.
