Here are a few additional stats, computed for players who played at least 15 games the past year. Variance<\/em> is a measure of the consistency of your game, in terms of finishing position. If you went out in third place, every single time, then your variance would be 0.0. (i.e. No variance.) All statistics given (e.g. Average Finish) are computed per game played.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Here’s that same data,\u00a0in graphical form. The black square is the players average finish. The\u00a0vertical line shows the range that player tends to finish in. The taller the vertical line, the higher that player’s variance (i.e. the wider their finishing range.)

\nPoints-paying games<\/span><\/p>\n

The first two games on all regular scheduled nights will pay points. Subsequent games, if any, will not pay points unless otherwise announced.<\/p>\n

The GSOP points formula is:<\/h1>\n

Points = 10 * [sqrt(#entrants)\/sqrt(place)]<\/strong> (Points equal ten times the square root of the number of entrants, divided by the square root of your finish.) Points take into account the size of the starting field and the place of your finish. Any\u00a0player who participates in a game will always receive at least 10 points, even if he or she is the first eliminated.<\/span> There’s been a suggestion to look at a different points system. You’ll find discussion of the proposed changes, here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Chopping<\/span><\/p>\n

In the case of a chop, the pot will be divided in the manner decided by the players chopping. GSOP points will be distributed according to stack size.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

GSOP Pot<\/h1>\n

Players participating in any GSOP points-paying games will be required to pay $5 per game. Players may no longer opt out.<\/strong> The host will receive $20 from the night’s GSOP pot.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Prizes<\/h1>\n

(1420)<\/strong>
\n\"gsop2014prizes\"<\/a>
\nThe final GSOP prize pool will be divided into two parts. 30% will go to the GSOP Player of the Year<\/strong>: the player with the most GSOP points. The remaining 70% will constitute the prize pool for the year end Main Event<\/strong> free-roll.<\/p>\n

The 2014 Main Event – January 3, 2015<\/h1>\n

The 2014 GSOP will culminate in a deep stack free-roll – The Main Event<\/strong>\u00a0– for 70% of the final pot. The Main Event will take place after the last regular game of the year. There will be no re-buys or add-ons. Starting chips are based on GSOP points.<\/p>\n
