New Macropoker Score Formula: Ranking MTT Poker Players Differently
The new Macropoker Score formula, created by Евгений Сидоровский, aims to identify the most successful MTT poker players at any given moment. This formula considers the complexity of the tournament, the number of buy-ins won, and the ROI of the player. The formula takes into account the number of players, the buy-in amount, and the room where the tournament is held.
The formula uses a limited number of the best tournaments to calculate the rating, specifically 150 tournaments. This approach helps to avoid giving too much weight to super grinders who play a large number of tournaments. The formula includes a function to account for ROI, which grows quickly near zero and slowly at the edges. This ensures that players with significantly higher ROI do not have an unfair advantage in the ranking.
The Macropoker Score formula offers a unique approach to ranking MTT poker players. By considering the complexity of the tournament, the number of buy-ins won, and the ROI of the player, the formula provides a more comprehensive and accurate ranking system. This approach helps to identify the most successful MTT players and provides a fairer representation of their skills and achievements.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
