What hands are rank highest in Poker. ABOUT CARDPLAYER, THE POKER AUTHORITY CardPlayer.com is the world's oldest and most well respected poker magazine and online poker guide.Since 1988. Poker statistics for all online poker players are updated real time and online poker results and rankings are added to Official Poker Rankings (OPR) every hour 24/7. Poker standings and all poker players ratings and the OPR poker, OPR profit and OPR prize ladder rankings are updated daily. The poker hand rankings are a fundamental part of poker and there’s a good chance you’re not going to win if you don’t know what hand wins. Fortunately it’s pretty easy to understand poker hand rankings and they are the same for all the most popular poker games including Texas Hold’em, Pot-Limit Omaha and Seven-Card Stud.
Every time you play a hand on our platform, you are benchmarked against everyone else who played the exact same hand in the exact same game conditions. We deal the decks asynchronously, so potentially thousands of others will have played the same hand you just played, whether it was today, yesterday, or a month before. This builds up a huge dataset upon which we can compare you.
After you’ve played a hand, you will be informed:
Congratulations – you won 430 chips.
In the 17,249 times this hand was played before, the average chips won was 230.
You beat 84% of players who have played this hand before.
You gained 8 rating points.
[We provide this information via our unique ‘Heatmap’, which you can learn more about by clicking here]
You are awarded rating points for the hand, based on where you came amongst all the players who played that hand, according to the following table.
| You beat % of players | Rating Points Won | You beat % of players | Rating Points Lost |
| 97.5-99.9% (Top 2.5%) | 10 | 0%-2.49% (Bottom 2.5%) | -10 |
| 92.5-97.49% | 9 | 2.5-7.49% | -9 |
| 87.5-92.49% | 8 | 7.5-12.49% | -8 |
| 82.5-87.49% | 7 | 12.5-17.49% | -7 |
| 77.5-82.99% | 6 | 17.5-22.49% | -6 |
| 72.5-77.49% | 5 | 22.5-27.49% | -5 |
| 67.5-72.49% | 4 | 27.5-32.49% | -4 |
| 62.5-67.49% | 3 | 32.5-37.49% | -3 |
| 57.5-62.49% | 2 | 37.5-42.49% | -2 |
| 52.5-57.49% | 1 | 42.5-47.49% | -1 |
| 47.5-52.49% (Middle 5%) | 0 | 47.5-52.49% (Middle 5%) | 0 |
Note: To help on-board novice players, we apply a multiplier to RP gains for lower ranks – so you may find yourself winning more points than this while in the ‘Rookie’ category.
We can even compare your result only against players in the same ranking category as you.
For example, consider a hand that has been played 200 times by players in your ranking category. You are next to play the hand and win 300 chips. This result is, say, better than 67.5-72.49% of all those players. You would therefore be awarded 4 rating points for the hand.
As you move up in the rankings, you will obviously find it harder to consistently perform above your then current ranking level, until you settle in a range that truly reflects you ranking among your peers – or among all poker players.
This is a dynamic equilibrium system, where winning or losing a single hand is not a death knell for your ranking. On the other hand, the system is weighted to produce an accurate ranking far more quickly than in regular, “un-benchmarked” poker, where it can take hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of hands to accurately determine skill.
This is the first iteration of exciting ranking methodologies that we will be testing and refining over the coming months as we try hard to produce the best ever ranking system for poker play. We enthusiastically invite you to test the system and give us your most brutal feedback.
