Could someone please explain how a Calcutta works?
Thanks

It's simply an auction where you are bidding on a certain player. All the bid money goes into a pot and it's split up into prizes just like the tournament winnings. If you have the highest bid on a player I.e. You won that player in the Calcutta and they place 2nd in the tournament, you win whatever the 2nd place prize is in the Calcutta.

Not exactly, but theres a bid on he players. So if someone bid 8K on alex, and it's somewhere along the lines of 33% for 1st, 20% for 2nd, etc..

So if alex wins 1st you win.33% of the total calcutta. If alex wins 2nd, you get 20%, etc etc.

Usually the favorites will go real high and the heavy underdogs go for cheap. Usually the players are allowed to buy half of themselves but probably seldom do.
