Background
Players do not have to lose a game for the bank to grow: those killed for cheating, murdered by other players in the dormitory fights or who die any other way add to it too, which is what drives Jang Deok-su's riot. In the first season the whole pool goes to the winner; in the later seasons it is split among the survivors if they vote to stop. In-ho won the 2015 pool, Gi-hun the 2020 one, and the 2024 pool went to Kim Jun-hee's baby, Player 222.
