    Need Help Writing a Formula To Compare Ranges Containing Specific Values

    Ok I keep home game poker stats on an excel spreadsheet. One part for money lost/won, one part for finishing position. people always ask me what there record is vs another person when they end up heads up. The way I usually do this is by seperating their 2 rows and scrolling along to see games where one guy got 1st the other 2nd or when they both got 1st(ie a tie). Then just add it up manually.


    Is there anyone who knows how to write some excel equation so that I can just enter the 2 peoples ranges (their rows) and it will show their head sup record vs each other. (Only games where one gets 1st, the other 2nd or they tie both getting 1st.)

    Here is a screenshot of the position section of the excel.

    Any help would be appreciated. Even a starting point would be nice.

    But even before that, please take a few minutes to read the forum rules, and then amend your thread title accordingly.
