I have participated in tournaments several times now and have some questions. I have read the rules, but I am probably so blonde that I do not understand them. However, I have understood that in games I should somehow perceive whether I should lose or win with my cards to get points. There are different rules for overtaking...although overtaking and winning may not bring me maximum points, because ...with my cards I should have lost at that moment. Shouldn't the goal of a hand, in a tournament or not - it makes no difference, be to win first and then win as much as possible. Overtaking is always the sweetest win and overtaking is a bonus with a twist? But right now I can't focus on playing first, but I should first look at what is expected of me - can I lose or should I win? Some people are talking about some kind of logic here, but I haven't noticed it yet. Maybe someone smarter can enlighten me?
Sasku tournament points and goal

In a Swiss system chess tournament, it is sometimes more clever to draw (then you will have a weaker opponent for the next round) - the same is true in chess tournaments when there are many players.
Well, that's wrong. Example: http://www.vint.ee/turniiritabel/?id=66558 5th round. We crossed the opponent's square and got only 50 points for it. I honestly don't understand how these points are calculated there. In theory, this could be the best of this round, but it wasn't. Someone who lost got more:)
The goal of Sasku tournaments is to significantly reduce the proportion of randomness (card luck) in the game - all tables play with the same cards. When evaluating the result, your result is compared with the results of players in the same position at other tables. When comparing your result with other tables, you get points as follows: 1) If the points are equal to the other table, you get 2 points 2) If you got more points: a) The trump card was not in the same position and the results of both tables are positive, you get 3 points b) In other cases, you get 4 points 3) If you got fewer points a) The trump card was not in the same position and the results of both tables are positive, you get 1 point b) In other cases, you get 0 points Points are summed up and a percentage of the maximum result is calculated. The maximum result is (number_of_tables - 1)*4 Previously, the logic was simpler: the same points gave one point, if you got more points, you got 2 and the maximum number of points was therefore (number_of_tables - 1)*2. However, this system had a problem with the results, for example: N4 N4 N2 - the results were 75 75 0, which was unfair to N2, I tried to fix it now. The general principles are still the same. To get a good result, you need to get the highest possible score. You achieve this if: 1) You bid realistically and know how to play out. Playing out with tension is always better than playing without tension 2) With bad cards, play well in defense, avoid getting stuck, and if possible, overbid. Others are also playing with the same bad cards, and the best result is likely to be the one who got out of the jam.
I will also give one specific example: 4 tables, N results 2 and 2 1 and -1 (E results -2 -2 -1 and 1 respectively) The first one gets tournament points 10 (2 4 4), the second also 10, the third 4 and the last 0 The maximum number of tournament points was (4-1)*4 = 12 So the percentages: (10/12) = 83, 83, 25, 0 E The points are then 100 - N respectively, or: 17, 17, 75, 100
