How it works

Play. Enter it. Get it backed.

  1. 1

    Enter the score

    After any match, enter the racks each player won, the game (9-ball, 10-ball, 8-ball, one pocket, snooker or Chinese 8-ball) and whether it was practice, money or a tournament. Your opponent doesn't need an account yet.

  2. 2

    Get it witnessed

    Your opponent or anyone who watched checks I witnessed this. Anyone can flag a score as wrong, and it stops counting if the flags outweigh the people backing it. The two players' word counts double.

  3. 3

    Watch it move

    Every rack updates both players' ratings and your head-to-head record. New players are provisional until 50 racks. Share the card, give props, talk trash in the comments.

What the numbers mean

Ratings use the scale pool players already know: a 100-point edge means winning two racks for every one.

Why it's different

Built for how pool is actually played

Most rating systems only see the matches an organizer reports, and treat years of results as one number. Here's what changes.

Every match counts

Usually
Only league nights and sanctioned events count, and only once an organizer uploads them.
Here
Casual sets, money games and tournaments all count. Anyone can enter a score, and the people who were there confirm it.

Your rating moves when your game does

Usually
Your rating is one number built from years of results, so real improvement can take a long time to show.
Here
Your skill is treated as something that changes, so recent results carry real weight, while every rating stays anchored to everyone you’ve played.

It tells you how sure it is

Usually
You get a number and, at best, a count of games behind it, and have to guess how far to trust it.
Here
Every rating carries a ± range that tightens as you play and widens when you take time off.

Scores are checked by people, not paperwork

Usually
Results are only as reliable as whoever reported them.
Here
Opponents and witnesses back scores up. Flagged scores stop counting, and people who vouch for bad scores lose the weight to do it again.
