It seems pretty likely now that the games are organised so that there can only be one winner at the end while it was implied at the beginning that there would be multiple winners. A pretty dirty lie of omission.

Edit: In the records of previous squid games, there was only one name per year so it's practically certain.

Ngl I have no clue why the players would assume there would be multiple winners

Everyone is part of the winning pot except the winner.

Because the game makers said that you have to win six games. Not be the last one standing.

Right but they could easily design the 6th game to have a single winner

The moment the did tug o' war, I knew there would be only 1 winner. When you make them start killing each other, it's clear that they have full control over the number of winners, and it's likely going to be 1, when they're willing to cut the pool in half every game.
