SharkScope is a paid lookup service for online poker tournament results. Type a screen name and a network, and it shows that player's tracked tournament history. It's one of the best-known tools for researching opponents and fields.

What it does
- Player lookups: a player's recorded tournament results, with summary figures such as profit, ROI (return on investment), ITM (how often they cash), an ability score and results graphs over time.
- Leaderboards: rankings of players by network, including notable recent wins.
- Registering-tournament tools: look at who has signed up for a tournament before it starts.
- Desktop / HUD: a desktop app (HandTracker) and HUD that show stats at the table, where the room allows it.

Using it to choose tournaments
See our guide: How to use SharkScope to pick tournaments.
Check the room's rules first. Poker sites have different rules on third-party tools. Some allow stat lookups but ban HUDs or real-time tools while you're seated. Read each room's terms on third-party software before you use SharkScope or any tool with it.
18+/21+ only. Minimum age depends on the site and your state. Play responsibly. Gambling problem? Call 1-800-GAMBLER.
Affiliate disclosure: Some links may be affiliate links, and we may earn a commission if you sign up. That doesn't change the listings or the order they appear in.
Not legal advice. Online poker and sweepstakes laws vary by state, so check your local laws before you play. Only PokerStars (US) and WSOP Online are licensed in the US, and only in the states they list (NJ/PA/MI and NV/NJ/MI/PA). Offshore and crypto sites (Ignition, ACR, BetOnline, CoinPoker, Phenom) are not licensed in the US. GGPoker doesn't accept US players. CoinPoker accepts US players even though its terms list the US as restricted. Sweepstakes sites exclude some states.
Schedules come from each site's public pages, and each listing shows its source and the date we last checked it. Items marked unverified conflict across sources or are out of date. Always confirm in the poker lobby. SC (Sweeps Coins) and CHIP are treated as about $1 for stake tiers.
