What is "Pocket stats — all members", and who can see it?

Open your Activity — on iPhone that's the screen Activity pushes you into; on the web app it's the same Activity pop-up — and scroll past your own Pocket play section to a row called Pocket stats — all members. Tap it to open the Pocket stats screen, split into three sections — Left-handed players, Right-handed players and Ambidextrous players — each with two rows: Chose left and Chose right.

Each row shows a rounded win rate, for example ≈55%, next to a rounded rack count, for example ~60 racks — how often breaking to that pocket won the rack, for players with that dominant hand, across every tracked rack in the community. Every number here is rounded and approximate; this screen never shows an exact figure.

It's built entirely from data you already control. Your dominant hand comes from Playing style on your own profile — see What is "Playing style" on my profile, and who can see it? Your pocket choice comes from answering the live scoreboard's per-rack prompt — see Why does the live scoreboard ask me to pick a pocket every rack? Both are optional. If you haven't set a hand, or haven't answered a pocket prompt, your racks simply don't feed into this screen.

A combination only appears once it clears a minimum on three separate fronts at once: enough different players behind it, enough members overall who've set that dominant hand, and enough tracked racks. Miss any one of those and that row reads Not enough data — never a real number, however small.

This is a community total, never a personal one. Nothing here is broken down by player, city or club, and there's no way to work out how any one member — including you — plays from what's shown. For your own pocket-play numbers, see Where do I see my own pocket-play stats?

Pocket stats — all members is open to any signed-in member, on iPhone, iPad and the web app alike, once the feature is switched on. It doesn't depend on being connected to anyone.
