Hi everyone,
I'm writing here from France: I am the president of a poker club (association) and I would loke to know if someone could help me to make my formula for our tournaments.
here is the situation:
- we usually make 1/3 of ITM: so if n represent the amount of players ITM is when r<=n/3.
- we use the "winamax formula which includes the "winamax point factor". That factor is the one that bothers me.
- the original formula is:
{[sqrt(n/(pow(r,exp(10/n))]/Y}*b*n
where
n= number of players
r= rank
Y= sum of winamax point. each ITM player as a Winamax point x(r)=sqrt(n/(pow(r,exp(10/n))
I made my formula for 63 player (Y=53.45) and it's ok. But I don't know how to make a general formula for n players. In fact I don't know how to introduce the "x" or the "Y" variable.
If you can help I would be grateful.
Thanks a lot.
Johnfolds
