I have decided to open this thread because partypoker.fr does not have any online support and they don't seem to answer emails. Maybe they answer only Tuesdays who knows. So hopefully this thread will bust their interest in customer support.

Anyway, my 500 eur bonus for 1st depositors disapeared from the active tab for no reason and with no explanation when I was just at the beginning and it has not expired.

On the other side, could Mods explain me why this thread has been supressed already once without even noticing me? Am I saying something against the rules or I cannot complaing about partypoker.fr in here?

FYI, just after opening this thread I got an answer. Apparently they are having difficulties with the system and bonuses don't show up.

I was just wondering if unlocking a bonus on PokerStars has any affect on the speed at which you unlock stellar rewards and collect FPP? So I assume you're still earning more rakeback overall, but just wondering if there was any rate reduction for the other rewards.

I've written a website for my friends and I to track results in our online league.

In the home games when you create a new tournament and click on the "Results Apply to Club Standings and Statistics".

Once the tournament is completed, Series points are calculated based on the top 30% finishers. From last night with 13 participants:

1st - 4.67, 2nd - 3.3, 3rd - 2.7, 4th - 2.33, 5th-13th 0

Does anyone know the formula for how this is calculated? I'd like to automate this to my website to reduce any manual input.

Thanks

They replied if anyone is interested:

The exact formula for how Home Game statistics are calculated is based upon these factors:

n = number of players in tournament
k = place of finish (k = 1 for 1st place, k = 2 for 2nd place, etc.)
p = integer (n * 0.34)

'p' determines who receives points. 'p' is the number of places that finish in the top third of the tournament. If there are 6 entrants, then n=6, therefore p=n*0.34, making p=2 (integer of 2.04).

If n = 4, 2 points are awarded for 1st
If n = 5, 3 points are awarded for 1st

For n > 5, points awarded are:

n * (sqrt(n)/sqrt(k)) / [sum (sqrt(n)/sqrt(k)) for k = 1 to k = p]

Each tournament with 6 or more players pays out the total number of points equal to the number of entrants (n). The numbers generated by the above equation tend not to equal 'n', in these cases the points are normalised accordingly, by keeping the same ratio but applying it to n, rather than >n.

So if there are 6 entrants n=6, p=2. As p=2.04, only the top 2 finishers will receive points, meaning the equation will work like this:

For 1st, n=6, k=1, p=2.04:

6 * (sqrt(6)/sqrt(1)) / [(sqrt(6)/sqrt(1)) + (sqrt(6)/sqrt(2)) + (sqrt(6)/sqrt(6*0.34))]
6 * (2.449/1) / [(2.449/1) + (2.449/1.414) + (2.449/2.04)]
6 * 2.449 / (2.449 + 1.732 + 1.71)
= 2.49

For 2nd, n=6, k=2, p=2.04:

6 * (sqrt(6)/sqrt(2)) / [(sqrt(6)/sqrt(1)) + (sqrt(6)/sqrt(2)) + (sqrt(6)/sqrt(6*0.34))]
6 * (2.449/1.414) / [(2.449/1) + (2.449/1.414)]
6 * 1.732 / (2.449 + 1.732 + 1.71)
= 1.76

These results are then normalised so that 6 points are awarded in total (as each tournament awards 'n' points):

For 1st place:

6* (2.49 / (2.49 + 1.76)) = 3.51points

For 2nd place:

6* (1.76 / (2.49 + 1.76)) = 2.49 points

We hope this answers your question. If you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to email us again.

Have fun at the tables!
