I'm in, but didn't understand these margin points :o How are they calculated?
Example
You pick (1) Henin to win the match with 7 margin pts
Your opponent also pick Henin to win, but with 10 margin pts
Means: You def your opponent 1 - 1 (7-10) because you predicted the EXACT/Closest margin to the actual result :)
I hope you understand
How do you defeat your opponent 1-1? I am confused...
Youf
Apr 28th, 2007, 12:34 PM
How do you defeat your opponent 1-1? I am confused...
I've understood :D It's like a tie-break! What should we do if both players predicted the same winner in the knock-out system? :p We use margin points (difference between the games both WTA players has won).
Dementieva def. Henin 6-0 1-6 6-4 Margin points 13-10 = 3!
Great example so far :) Both predicted winner Lena. I predicted 2 margin points, you - 1. I won :D
Or if both predicted winner Henin. Me - 3 margin points, you - 5. So I think I'll win again because I predicted smaller difference in games! :D
