What are the "Top 5" tables?
Each Round, players are seeded based on their cumulative Battle Poiints. So the "Top 5" tables are the players with the top 10 cumulative Battle Point scores. You can get a good general sense of where you currently stand based on what table you're playing on. I'd agree with Gorgon that there does seem to be a very different GT experience from seen on those tables than elsewhere in the hall...

It demonstrates an effort made to be understood, and to make your post an easy and pleasant read. By making this effort, you can often elicit more positive responses from the community, and instantly mark yourself as someone worth talking to.
