1. Every decision is graded. When you fold, call or raise, RIVL works out your equity against the hands each opponent likely holds, based on how they’ve bet. It compares the expected value of your choice with the best option and labels it like a chess move: Brilliant, Best, Excellent, Good, Inaccuracy, Mistake or Blunder.
2. Each match gives you a score against every opponent. 60% comes from placement (finish above them and you win that part). 40% comes from decision accuracy (play more accurately than them and you win that part).
3. Glicko-2 updates everyone’s rating. Beating higher-rated players is worth more. RD is how sure the system is about your rating: new players start at ±350 and move fast, then settle as you play. Below ±110 your rating is no longer provisional.
Bots are on the ladder too. Each bot has a fixed skill level and its own rating, so you can measure yourself against them. Leaving a match early leaves it unrated.
