Block 843142 - Help me make sense of block reward

Hi all,

I'm struggling with making sense of the block reward of block 843142.

My understanding is that for every block found miner will get half the block reward (along with fees), and a masternode will get the other half.

Only in the mentioned block the reward is deposited to three addresses.

Further, how do I determine which of the transactions are going to a masternode? Is it always the lesser of the two "big" payouts? (the bigger one would be going to the miner because of the fees)

Thanks,
Daniel
 
Some miners splitting their reward (1.64283611 + 0.03352726 = 1.67636337). This miner always do this (see blocks 873804 873720 873707 873685 873674...)
Masternodes reward is always second.
 
Actually the masternode payment can be the first payment. Example: https://dashradar.com/explorer/bloc...903b1a3ec3e9d20b0933d8ecbea257d04cdd47d2b7372

If only one of the receiving addresses contains an output with 1000 Dash then that must be the masternode. I guess you could also check against the masternode list. I don't know if is possible to always determine which one is the masternode payment since I guess it would be possible to mine coins to a masternode address. To my knowledge masternodes get 45% or 50% of the transaction fees as well.
