At the start of a tournament the 'Tourney' pane seems to show the top 5 ranked players.

Can anyone tell me how the rankings are calculated?

No weird answers, please :)

Cheers Soap, but no - you could be anywhere on the registration list but still be top on the Tourney pane.

I reckon it must be somehow based on past performances, but I just can't figure it out.

not sure why it makes the remote bit of difference :)

It doesn't make much difference.

It's just that if bf considers other players to be stonger or weaker than me, I'd kinda like to know what that's based on.

alphabetical order?
Report dnglos January 31, 2010 10:53 PM GMT
Not exactly - players of equal rank appear to be grouped together and then sorted alphabetically.

It really is in buy in order until it starts. You reg first and you will be number 1

No. When the tournament starts the Tourney pane is blank. During the first hand the top 5 are shown in some kind of order, even though no *****have been won or lost at that stage. But it has nothing to do with when you registered.

All I know is, if I stick to cheap SNGs I'm nearly always 1st or 2nd on the list. But if I move up to a more expensive table I'll probably start further down.

Does it matter?? i just think your insecure and paranoid, only thing that matters is that your in top 5 at the end of a tournment.
