See, you were right the first time. Sorry I alerted you at the tourney yesterday to my confusion by your & Zach's posts. :p 
 
Okay, so I think I get it now. The hand winner had over 1600 chips to start. He beat the pair with 1600 chips first. But that fact was of no consequence as far as her finishing next. All that mattered was that the 1500 chip OP finished in the same hand.
 
And thanks JD: "The shorter stack can never eliminate the larger stack on a single hand, so in the case where both short and middle are removed at the same time the extra credit is given to the middle stack that was eliminated by a larger stack but would never have been eliminated by the shorter stack."
 
That's what I thought. I was just trying to envision the scenario in the OP. If the hand winner had just 500 chips before the hand, what would happen? He'd win the main pot of 1500 (500 from each of you), and the sidepot is just the OP (with 1500 and a set) & the other woman (with a pair) - the OP would have 1000 chips in the side pot and win 2000 (meaning just 1000 from the woman with the pair & 1600), and she'd be left with 100 chips. Is this correct?
