Not sure how every online site would handle it, but the normal distribution is that they would all tie for 2nd, chopping the remaining prize pool among the other 8 players.
 
OK - I'll stick my neck out once again. Given the OP situation, I fold. I mention it only so the OP knows there ARE players out there that would fold. Please - save your time thinking up cutesy comments or derogs about my ability. Have heard them all, and I still fold in most cases like this. Nothing will change my mind.
 
When [I]wouldn't[/I] I fold? When I really didn't give a darn about winning or losing. To [I]me[/I], it is not about understanding the game or the odds. A multi-way all-in pf (especially first hand) is just an opportunity to test the poker gods, and approx 50% of the time I [I]WILL[/I] get busted (+/- variance).
 
As to the [I]why[/I] ? I'm a long time limit player, and I would rather grind it out with cards I can see, than play the odds of coinflips and variance. By NOT going all-in here, I [I]CANNOT[/I] lose the hand. Online, folding during the donkfest opening hands, I will survive to play on.
 
I will agree that almost all NL players would say they would make the call, and they would, and I do understand their thinking. Nothing wrong with that. Just a preference in style of play.
