Hi David,

I have worked some numbers as my gut says that you are way off.

I think we're talking about different things. I clearly stated that my numbers were just for the beginning of the tournament, and I believe them to be accurate. You seem to be talking about the chances for being in the same table for the whole tournament, and I agree the cheating rate should increase for sure, I also agree with the factor of 4 you include between an advanced player and the average player, I was using that factor while doing different calculations about the odds of getting both accounts to the final table.
I deliberately didn't work these numbers since I knew there was going to be people talking about the big Sunday tournaments in Party and Stars, I challenge them to include all the variables before they say something about the cheating rate in these tourneys.

My aim was to provide an example easy to understand and pretty hard to refute.
