I’ve often wondered if the winner is rewarded for good play or if the loser is punished for not so good play
For example I only have about 40 games in the system and only a preliminary rating. This past weekend I played in a tournament that will go into fargorate. I played 2 players, the first one was established and rated 9 points below me. I won that set 11-5. The second player had a rating 8 points higher than mine. I won that set 7-1.
My question is when two players are close in rating but the score of a set is one sided does the winner get credit for playing good or is the loser punished for playing bad?
I know fargorate only gets the data that is turned in. However the player rated 8 points higher than me has never beat me. I’ve played him 3 times lately and he hasn’t gotten past 2 games yet. The first set I won 5-2 the second set was in a handicapped tourney where I was giving him the 8 ball. I won that set 5-1. Then the set this past weekend where I won 7-1. For a total score of 17-4.
