How poker night runs

A card room on your TV, dealt by the app

Open poker on the TV

Load one link on the bar's screen. The felt table and a join QR code appear, so regulars can take a seat.

Players take a seat from their phones

Guests scan the code and sit down. Their hole cards stay private on their own phone, with action buttons and a raise slider.

The app deals every hand

Blinds, the dealer button, all four streets, side pots, and showdown are handled for you. Busted players can rebuy a fresh stack.

A real Hold'em table, dealt automatically

Blinds, the button, betting on every street, main and side pots, split pots, and showdown all run themselves. Nobody at the bar has to know how to deal or count a pot.

A poker hand on a phone: your two cards, the board and the Fold, Call and Raise buttons

Your cards stay yours

Each player sees only their own hole cards on their phone. The TV shows the shared board and reveals hands only at showdown, so nobody can peek over a shoulder.

A seat on the bar TV with the turn timer ring and the To Act tag

Keeps the game moving

A turn timer nudges the table along and auto-checks or folds a player who steps away. The next hand deals on its own, so a slow player never stalls the night.

The board and the pot on the bar TV

No cash, by design

There are no cash pots and no payouts, which keeps poker night on the right side of gambling rules. It is about bragging rights and another round, not a bank.

Questions

Bar poker FAQ

Is this gambling?

Can other players see my cards?

No. Each player sees only their own hole cards on their phone. The TV shows the shared table and reveals cards only at showdown.

Do I need a dealer?

No. The app deals every hand, manages blinds and pots including side pots, runs a turn timer, and starts the next hand automatically.

Can I set the blinds and stacks?

Yes. Blinds, starting chips, and the turn clock are set from your dashboard, so the table fits your crowd.
