Drills

Leaderboard Drills in Lucid Poker

Compete against players worldwide using Leaderboard Drills. Everyone who plays at least one hand earns a raffle entry for the monthly grand prize.

Quick answer
Leaderboard Drills let you compete against players worldwide by completing GTO-scored hands. Everyone who plays at least one hand earns a raffle entry for the monthly grand prize.

How It Works

Leaderboard Drills are a competitive game mode inside Lucid Poker. You complete GTO-scored hands and accumulate points, which determine your position on the leaderboard. Several different competitions run every month, covering different game formats.

The mode is designed to feel like a real poker session. Hands are dealt randomly starting from preflop, mirroring what you see at the table. That makes it one of the most realistic practice modes in the app.

Tip

Use it as a warm-up or cool-down. Because hands start from preflop and run continuously, Leaderboard Drills replicate the feel of a live session better than any other mode in the app.

Important

You only need to play one hand to enter. A single leaderboard hand earns you one raffle entry and a chance at the monthly grand prize.

Current prize details are posted each month in the leaderboard channel of the Lucid Poker Discord server at discord.gg/lucidpoker.


Free vs. Pro Access

Free members can play up to 20 leaderboard hands per day. That gives you a solid shot at accumulating entries each month.

Lucid Pro members get unlimited leaderboard hands, which gives you the best chance to climb the rankings and crack the top 10.

Tip

Volume matters at the top. Players in the top three spots typically have the most hands played. If ranking is your goal, Pro gives you the reps to compete.
