Skill Score is a unique feature at CoinPoker designed to help you assess your tournament performance. Previously, this data was only accessible through third-party tracking subscriptions, but now your MTT statistics are available directly within the CoinPoker app.

Built-in tournament ranking

Skill Score is a rating from 0 to 1,000 that reflects your tournament performance. Since most other poker rooms don’t provide a built-in metric like this, it’s a major advantage for CoinPoker players who prefer to analyze their progress.

The score is calculated using seven key metrics:

📊Indicator	💬Description
✅ITM (In The Money)	ℹ️How often do you finish in the money? The more frequently you reach the payout zone, the higher your score. This metric is based on the average tournament buy-in.
✅ROI (Return on Investment)	ℹ️Indicates how much you earn relative to what you invest.
✅Tournaments played	ℹ️The total number of tournaments you have participated in.
✅Winnings	ℹ️The sum of all the money you have won in tournaments.
✅Final tables	ℹ️How many times have you reached the final tables. The bigger the tournament, the higher the indicator.
✅1st place	ℹ️Number of tournament wins. Victories in major tournaments carry more weight than wins in smaller events.
✅The biggest win	ℹ️Your biggest prize in a single tournament.

Important! You can check your Skill Score and compare it with other players’ directly on the CoinPoker client's main page, in the HUD window at tournament tables, and in the PokerIntel Insights section.

First, a player’s seven key statistics are collected from all tournaments played.
These figures are then converted into a relative rating out of 1,000, based on how they compare to other players’ results.
Each metric is assigned a specific weight in the overall calculation.
Finally, all results are combined to produce your overall Skill Score.

Results from satellites and freerolls are excluded from the Skill Score calculation.
If you’ve played fewer than 100 tournaments, your ranking is adjusted based on the number of tournaments played to ensure the ranking remains fair and balanced, even for newer players.

The Importance of Skill Score

Skill Score isn't just a number. It's a tool that truly helps you improve your game:

Strengths and weaknesses – Identify the formats and buy-in levels where you perform best, as well as the areas that need improvement.
Progress tracking – Skill Score highlights trends in your performance, showing exactly what’s improved, whether it’s more final tables, a higher ROI, or a better ITM rate.
Goal setting – Set clear objectives, such as cashing more consistently, boosting your ROI, or securing more wins. Any measurable progress is
