John phan? Heard of young phan david phan. Whose John Phan? Sounds familiar though.

So what you are saying is there not so good. How do the scrubs get the higher ranking than the better players?

Bax is the guy who was destroyed by Chan during the infamous "I misread the colors" debacle. So classic.

They probably won several tournaments. As soon as somebody wins several tournaments, other non-winning players point out what bad players they actually are.

If you go to pocketfives.com it will tell you how they do the ranking. Admittedly it's only PP, but the lack of players from the PP leaderboard on the 55 leaderboard would lead me to believe it isn't that accurate and there may be an element of bias (many of the leaders also seem to be affiliated in some way with 55). 2+2er Sirio11 is in there though so it can't be total BS [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

[OT: there's some funny stuff in the forums though]
