Mysql not putting top users in right order

[bqp2]

<? 
session_start();
$query4 = "SELECT username,points FROM members WHERE won != 'yes' ORDER BY points DESC LIMIT 10"; 
$result4 = mysql_query($query4) or die(mysql_error()); 
$num=mysql_num_rows($result4);
?>

<span style="float:left;">
        <table width="200">
        <tr><td colspan="2" align="center">TOP 10 USERS</td></tr>
        <tr><td align="left"><b>Username<b></td><td align="left"><b>Points</b></td></tr>
        <?php $i=0;
        if($num>0){
while ($i < $num) {
$username6=mysql_result($result4,$i,"username");
$points6=mysql_result($result4,$i,"points");
$i++;
echo "<tr><td>".$username6."</td><td>".$points6."</td></tr>"; 
}
}
?>
</table>
</span>

 

why is it reporting like this?

 

timmy_73 - 83

shawn429 - 74

bobp - 74

bqp - 73

shelia - 44

joe23 - 219

jessica - 167

nicoleb  -153

Skippylynn - 13

shawnb75 - 11

 

the 219, 167, and 153 should be at top

Technically it's reporting them in the correct order by first number first, then second number, then third number.

 

I've tested something like this and it seems to pull mine out fine.

 

Are you sure the field you are using for points is an INT field?

 

That's the only thing I can currently think of.

Give this a shot:

 

$query4 = "SELECT username, points FROM members WHERE won != 'yes' ORDER BY ABS(`points`) DESC LIMIT 10";
