    Hi guys,

    Where can I go on Chess.com to get a good explanation of the Tournament Tie-Break system?

    well, i can explain.

    of course if 2 or more players are tied in regular points, tiebreaks decide who is higher in the standings. this is how they accumulate:

    a win gives you the number of regular points that the loser has; a draw is half of that; and a loss is 0.
