Point calculations:
The formula 5+3*sqrt(n-p)*In(n/p) is commonly used to calculate game points in poker leagues. This formula rewards players who place higher p in a larger field of players n, where lower finishing positions yield exponentially more points.
Variables Explained
n: The total number of players in the tournament.
p: Your finishing place in the tournament (e.g., 1 for 1st place, 2 for 2nd place, etc.).
ln: The natural logarithm.
