Chips: 29,466 | | | Most likely, this week's prize pool will again be missing my donation. Somebody will need to screengrab the results and post them, so I can update the leaderboard when I get back home.

Chips: 1,555 | | If you want to see an example of how another poker league keeps score, check out how the chip collector's group organizes it. They use a spreadsheet weighted by the number of players. Top place in a large tourney gets upwards of 700 points for that week. Second place is about half that, and so on.
Jay Sands keeps the points and could probably tell you how they do it. Link to him on the ChipBoard King of Poker II web site. http://www.nevadacasinochips.com/The...pionshipII.htm |
