Final T.O.C. & POY Parameters

This info will also be added to a link on the right - entitled Player of the Year


All Monthly Multi-Table Tournaments (MMTT) will have players tracked and awarded points based on Dr. Neau's tournament formula -

score = SQRT (n * b * b / e) / (f + 1.0)
SQRT the square root of
n=the number of participants in the tournament
b=the buy-in cost ($) for the tournament
e=the individual player's total expense (buy-in + add-ons + rebuys)
f=the individual player's finish

Click here and scroll down to find Dr. Neau's formula calculator.

As has been the case in past years, non Hold-em events will be worth double points.

At years end the player with the most points will be awarded a special Player of the Year trophy and have their name added to our perpetual plaque.

Player of the Year is automatically awarded a seat in the TOC, regardless of whether they win a MMTT during the year. 

Player of the Year also receives an additional 5K in their TOC starting stack.
