Points formula help
« on: December 10, 2006, 11:37:56 PM »
This is the sickest poker software in the world.....used the trial for 2 weeks. Purchased tonight, I need help with a formula, my points tracking is simple, number of players divided by the place finished   n/r    but the exception for my leauge is the winner's formula is a tad different... first place points is   number of players divided by 1.5  everyone likes this system and we have used it for 20 months, is there a formula for this points system since 1st place is divided by 1.5 instead of the rank like the rest of the players?

example:  30 players
1st =30/1.5= 20 points
2nd=30/2=15 points   and so on...all the way to top 10 players....I forgot to mention that only the top 10 finishers get points

any help is apprecited

Thanks,
esattech

if(r <= 10 && r > 1, n / r, if(r == 1, n / 1.5, 0))

In English:
if rank is less than or equal to 10 and rank is greater than 1
  then points = number of players divided by rank
else
  if rank is 1
    then points = number of players divided by 1.5
  else
    points = 0
