  You could just read what's already written down...

  Help Section:

  How do you pay out tournament winners?

  For tournaments where game credits are awarded we will use a payout method that assigns a specific percentage of the overall purse to the top 70 finishers plus ties. The payout percentages are listed here:

  Place	% of Purse	Place	% of Purse	Place	% of Purse
  1	18.000%	26	0.800%	51	0.246%
  2	10.800%	27	0.770%	52	0.240%
  3	6.800%	28	0.740%	53	0.236%
  4	4.800%	29	0.710%	54	0.232%
  5	4.000%	30	0.680%	55	0.230%
  6	3.600%	31	0.650%	56	0.228%
  7	3.350%	32	0.620%	57	0.226%
  8	3.100%	33	0.590%	58	0.224%
  9	2.900%	34	0.565%	59	0.222%
  10	2.700%	35	0.540%	60	0.220%
  11	2.500%	36	0.515%	61	0.218%
  12	2.300%	37	0.490%	62	0.216%
  13	2.100%	38	0.470%	63	0.214%
  14	1.900%	39	0.450%	64	0.212%
  15	1.800%	40	0.430%	65	0.210%
  16	1.700%	41	0.410%	66	0.208%
  17	1.600%	42	0.390%	67	0.206%
  18	1.500%	43	0.370%	68	0.204%
  19	1.400%	44	0.350%	69	0.202%
  20	1.300%	45	0.330%	70	0.200%
  21	1.200%	46	0.310%
  22	1.120%	47	0.290%
  23	1.040%	48	0.274%
  24	0.960%	49	0.260%
  25	0.880%	50	0.252%

  
  Prizes will be awarded after all of the players' scores are verified and approved by WGT. This can take up to 2-4 weeks after the end of a tournament.

  Which tournaments? There are lots on WGT and they all have different timeframes of paying out prizes.

  Ready go = as soon as the 50 players have all posted scores / WD'ed

  Weekly / monthly tournies (single play / unlimited) = normally anything from 3-14 days after the tournament finishes as WGT have to verify scores to ensure that no "funny business" has happened. To be fair WGT have steadily improved the timeframes of paying these tournies out, particularly over the last year

  CC tournies = as soon as the timeframe elapses on the tournament, payment is automatically made

  CTTH sweepstakes = get a pin with a chosen time add a donkey and a blindfold and you'll be closer than most people

  I assume you were looking for the weekly / monthly WGT tournies but that gives you a rough overview of the majority out there.
