I wrote a program that tracks player finishes in Party Poker's multitable tournaments. It's been running for about a week, and in that time I've logged about 130,000 players in 1100 or so tournraments. Any ideas on how many games I need to record per player to get a somewhat accurate ranking?
You can check out the current list here:

http://www.pokerdbase.com

It is updated about ever half hour.

not spam cause theres no ads...

make it searchable....

And I think 100 MTT's per player before you can assign any type of confidence....

I don't think my database has the horsepower to crunch too many search requests, so I left the player search off the main page for now.

I put a search feature on my web site. I'll leave it up as long as it doesn't slow everything else down to a halt.

IMHO, without a search, its pretty much useless....

That's interesting and my stats show that I live the build a big stack or bust out early approach

(and that the $50 have not been my friend in the last week or so )

thank you for the search feature. pretty sweet.

just out of curiosity, how do you get everyones finishes/ stats? is there a site that allows you to dl them? do you get them from pp?

I think I get geek of the week for that ... I spent a ton of time writing software to do it over the past couple weeks. I started it all just cause I was curious what real #s for ITM% look like in the MTTs.

Hey, that's pretty cool. I found myself and it's right on. Pretty impressive.

Is this type of data available anywhere else? I think you should try this...

Can you write something that pairs player vs player? For example, take 2 players and their last 5 $10 MTT's each, and somehow see who beats who?

Then, players can log into your software, place wagers against each other and play the required number and amount of MTTs. Winner gets paid through your system, you could even use pay pal. Get it, does this make sense? This could be a business if you lay it all out and get it legit. Design it and sell it to party. Do you have money to back this? Let's talk. -Kliph
