Live dealer pioneer Codeta has launched a new feature, Skill Score, that ranks players on their table game performance and places them on a leaderboard so they can see how they compare with their rivals.

A player’s Skill Score is determined by the two factors that have the most impact on their performance – the ability to win big and to keep winning over time.

For the purpose of Skill Score, Codeta has named these factors dedicated wins and big wins. Dedicated wins are calculated as a ratio between wins and losses, while big wins summarise earned payout-ratios.

A multiplier on each factor ensures top performances are really valued, while the simplicity of the factors makes it possible to compare skills between players regardless of the size of the bets placed.

A player’s Skill Score can be increased by improving either factor, or by working on the balance between the two. Codeta will run tournaments and promotions around the new feature, with the highest-ranked players winning a raft of prizes.

Edward Ihre, co-founder and chairman of Codeta, said: “Skill development is a big part of why players engage with live table games, and Skill Score enables them to keep track of their progress while also competing with other players. 

“Skill Score allows us to better engage our players and communicate with them on a regular basis. If we see they are performing well at blackjack but not so well at roulette, we can send them tutorials to help improve their roulette skills, for example.

“Skill Score really sets us aside from our rivals, and allows us to offer added value to our players. Our brand promise is to capture the skill and thrill of table games, and Skill Score is just one way we are able to offer this.”
