Bounty Grand Master

WassPoker is introducing a brand new ranking system which gives people a credible reference on their overall skills, as well as the ability to see thier ranking in the community as a whole. This is a long-term promotion, which is open to all players to use and enjoy. It is fully automated, so you don't need to do anything to participate.

The ELO System

The ELO rating system is a method of ranking players by assigning a base numerical score, and victories and losses in Bounty tournaments will adjust the score accordingly. This is a world-class official system used most frequently in Chess, and it is has also been adapted for other sports.

Our Bounty tournaments are great ways to track wins and losses of each player (either knocking out another player or being eliminated yourself). Using the ELO system, all Bounty players can track their success and score via Player Admin.

ELO rewards strong play against tough opponents, and penalizes bad play against weak opponents. Here is a typical example:

A player in a tournament with a below-average ELO score may eliminate a player with a high ELO score. Because the high-ranking player is effectively judged as a stronger competitor, the low-ranking player is awarded more points, because they defeated a player far above their determined skill level. Alternatively, If the high-ranking player eliminates a weak player, they will still earn points, but not nearly as many because the ELO system has ranked them as an easy opponent based on their playing history.

For this reason, the ELO system can be used effectively by any player regardless of their time commitment to the game. It rewards quality of play (defeating tough opponents, avoiding eliminations) above quantity of tournaments and number of bounties claimed. While tournament place isn't a factor in calculating ELO scores, the top players will generally progress to the later stages of the tournament, and therefore this is where all the top points are found! To rate highly in WassPoker's ELO system, you need to perform well with both eliminations and tournament placings.

The ELO system will be implemented in all Bounty tournaments and Sit n' Goes, and every player is automatically registered for an ELO score. Play as many or as little Bounty games as desired, and your Player Admin will track all your progress throughout each month.

ELO points start at 1500 each month, and the highest ranking players at the end of the month will receive leaderboard prizes! We will reset the counters as the month rolls over, so there's always more chances to get started with your A game.
