World Tracker Rules and Scoring Criteria

Welcome to World Tracker - the poker community's equivalent of the Olympics. Like elite international athletes, the best poker players regularly travel the world to compete on the international circuit, representing both themselves and their countries. Each month, Card Player awards gold, silver, and bronze medals to the nations whose players finish in the top three of major events.

We then calculate our leader board using an equation based on the points awarded and the population in the respective countries to bring you an accurate assessment of the best poker-playing nations on earth.
