    It has nothing to do with levellng and everything to do with your average. Your average comes directly from posted, ranked rounds. Players get good at the game by playing everything but ranked rounds and then go looking for suckers. It's called sandbagging and there's not a whole lot you can do about it except avoid those players. Identifying them is another story because not everybody is this way.

    Interesting what people will do to be winners, when actually they're losers.

    so, is it just your level number changing that moves you from pro to tour pro,,,simply by playing alot?

    No. The levels are only an indication of how much you play. You advance by accumulating experience points which you get just by playing here.

    You only change tiers when your average is low enough and you have a certain amount of ranked rounds posted. Levels have nothing to do with tiers. That's what seems to be hard to grasp-a very high level player WITH a high average. Either he's gaming the system or just not very good.
