6th Rackspace Chess Tournament This tournament completed April 29th, 2017.

Detailed breakdown of how Antonio's M-S-C-O tiebreaks were calculated. Tiebreaks are used to order players who finish with the same score, in the order M, then S, then C, then O. Byes have no opponent, so they are listed but not counted in the opponent-based tiebreaks.

M - Modified Mean [13.5]

The Modified Mean adds up the scores of every opponent Antonio Alvarado has played, then discards one of them depending on how Antonio Alvarado is doing.

Antonio's score (3.5 of 5.0 possible) is more than 50% of the possible points, so the lowest opponent score is discarded.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score	Counted?
1	Joseph Ellis	2.0	Counted
2	Jerry Hernandez	0.5	Discarded
3	Nitin Akella	3.5	Counted
4	Austin Mei	4.0	Counted
5	Alexander Rodriguez	4.0	Counted
Modified Mean		13.5

S - Solkoff [14.0]

The Solkoff is the combined score of every opponent Antonio Alvarado has played, with nothing discarded. A higher Solkoff means Antonio Alvarado faced tougher opposition.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Joseph Ellis	2.0
2	Jerry Hernandez	0.5
3	Nitin Akella	3.5
4	Austin Mei	4.0
5	Alexander Rodriguez	4.0
Solkoff		14.0

C - Cumulative [13.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Antonio's running score after each round. Early wins count more, because they carry forward into every later round's total.

1	1.0	1.0
2	1.0	2.0
3	1.0	3.0
4	0.5	3.5
