How it works: one win = one first-place finish posted by the room. Prize totals only count wins where the room posted the amount, and Canterbury often posts winners without one, so use the wins table to compare rooms. Names are matched as spelled, ignoring capitals. Team events are left out. Some Running Aces results are read automatically from results images. Winner info as posted publicly by the rooms. Want something removed? Email roger.irwin30@gmail.com.
