Looks like I'm going to have to actually cash in one of these things to make the TOC.Although the fortune cookie I got with dinner tonight did say "A financial venture may turn a profit sooner than expected", so maybe that means I'm going to cash this time.The coolest fortune I ever got said "You are the greatest in the whole world".Seriously.
Sorry to burst your bubble man it's my turn tonight. Although if you did cash I would take over the highest point total with out cashing spot... hmm... I see my destiny so clearly now.

looks like i have some ground to make up if i plan on getting in the top 9. i've sucked out before and beware i hope to do it again. it would be easier if the top 9 could stop winning for a bit though!!!! :-)
Unfortunately for me I know this first hand...... :?

how are the points rated Dna?  percent according to players or something.  just wondering my chances..
I use the standard poker tournament leaderboard formula which takes into account the buyin of the event, the number of entrants, and the persons placement based on the number of entrants.The actual formula is :Points = 10 * [sqrt(n)/sqrt(k)] * [1+log(b+0.25)]Where:n is the number of entrants k is the place of finish (k=1 for the first-place finisher, and so on) b is the buy-in amount in dollars ($10 for our tournies)Same TLB structure as used on pokerstars, the only main difference is we give everyone TLB points (even if finishing in last place) where as typically tournaments only provide TLB points for the top 15% finishers. Giving everyone points makes it more entertaining for everyone.
