Are you exaggerating or am I misunderstanding something? It's a $185 million settlement, of which ~$60 million is going towards fees and expenses, leaving $120 million for the plaintiffs?

Maybe I'm reading it wrong. ~~From my understanding, the plaintiffs are sharing $600,000. An individual plaintiff is receiving a payment of $15,000 or $7,500, depending on their group.~~

There's a bunch of numbers there, so if I'm wrong, I apologize.

EDIT: yep, I misunderstood. $600,000 to the REPRESENTATIVES. The other $120 million goes to the players.

According to the article players can expect up to $5500 and it depends on their amount of play … it quoted saying one guy was going to get ~$135…
