How do you calculate the average stack size? Total chips/ number of people <> your average stack size.

In these types of tournaments they just tell you the average stack size; but it should be total chips/players left.

Just snuck a peek at expunge's tourney - he is holding his own. Grabbed a blind while I was watching...

as scoot said, they post the avg stack for you.

this tournament players started with between 1000 and 3000 chips so the total chips isn't a nice round number.

at break 3 i have 6274. had to go all in once and doubled up.

218 remaining.
leader = 43181
avg = 8799

bets are 500 / 1000 when play resumes.

Can you only get there by Special Tournaments/Multi-table? Because the multi-table tab won't load for me...
