Is Elite Candy Royale a hoax?

This is my experience: I played the Elite version today. This one:
Previously I had played the 12 level top tier version, the non elite standard version:
That bottom version would normally pay out about 60 -100 gold bars in this particular game. The top elite version started off promising, but the prize stopped at 84 gold bars when I reached level 12 and then stopped going up. This is not new, I have found this repeatedly in the past with the elite or double version.
What I would like to question here is if it actually pays out twice the amount we would normally gain or if it just means that we have to work twice as hard, i.e. play twice as many levels to get the same, normal payout. In which case the "elite" event would be a hoax if not a fraud. As I said, I am undecided about this. Do any of you who play and win Candy Royale frequently find that the Elite event does pay out more than the normal version?
Also do we all have this same 12 level top tier standard version of the event now or are there still various versions around?

Okay, I have some stats 🙂
First of all, for the past months, I have had so many different versions of Candy Royale that I have lost count. I had 3- and 5-tier versions, the jackpot ranged from 400 to 700 for the regular event and 1400 to 1700 for the Elite version, the number of levels to pass was always different, and so on and so forth. I got a new version almost every time I played it. I also played the Elite event today, but I can't even remember if it was like yours or not.
However, I calculated my winnings for a period of time starting on September 2nd and ending today.
This is what I got:
Regular Candy Royale: played 11 times, average payout 94,36.
Elite Candy Royale: played 18 times, average payout 139,39.
These stats are for all the different versions of Candy Royale I have had, and lumping them all together is not entirely accurate, but with things changing so often, that's all I can do now.
Also, I had a 5-tier version of Candy Royale for about a month, and I calculated the winnings for that period to see if they were any different from the average, and I got the following:
Regular Candy Royale: played 8 times, average payout 98,50.
Elite Candy Royale: played 9 times, average payout 136,0.
So, the results are pretty consistent, and the verdict is that the Elite event pays out more, but not twice the amount we would normally gain. I'm not sure if it makes up for having to pass twice as many levels. I just play the Elite version more often because I play more on the weekends.
