So I was an idiot and entered an actual cash game today. By my own assessment I'm pretty good at Zuma Easy on WW. I've finished top 20 in a freeplay. I was thinking in a low stakes tournament that the best players wouldn't waste their time on it. WRONG.
At any rate, for any new folks out there trying to understand Fair Match, read this and be scared.
5 player Easy $1 entry, $3.75 to winner.
1st psmkdur 56,181
(top score ever 56,744 w/13,500 victory points)
2nd dpaull414 (me) 46,769
(top score ever 51,781 w/1110 victory points)
3rd pecenkica 28,663
(top score ever 62,050 w/1360 victory points)
4th ptica1 24,790
(top score ever 32,200 w/153 victory points)
5th wayga.gsn 9,835
(top score ever 39,971 w/2073 victory points)
How is it a player with a top score of 32,200 or 39,971 is getting matched up against 3 players with top scores > 51,781. The scores put up by me and psmkdur in this 1 tournaments are way higher than those 2 people have EVER scored. How did they have a chance? Total dead money.
At any rate, this is just an illustration of what WW thinks is a Fair Match. I'm guessing ptica & wayga don't think so.
