Hi, I've won a tournament game against a lower rated player and my rating has dropped by 8 points. I don't really care, just curious. Any explanantions for this?

Which game are you referring to?  All the won games in your recent history reflect an increase in rating.

Thanks for the reply.

According to the chart on my stats i had 1627 from the 15/11 until my last win where i dropped to 1619. As i said more curious than anything.

You went from 1627 to 1617 after a loss then to 1619 after a win.
