What PokerPulse Is For

Running a home poker game or a small club series usually means a spreadsheet for the payout structure, a phone timer for the blinds, and a lot of shouting across the room to announce who just busted. PokerPulse replaces that mix with one tool built specifically for running the game live.

Who it's for

PokerPulse serves everyone at the table, not just the person running it:

• Hosts, who set up a blind schedule, buy-in, and payout structure once, then run the clock and record eliminations as the game plays out.
• Players, who can check their table, stack, and finishing position without asking the host.
• Spectators, who want to follow along on a TV, a projector, or their own phone without needing an account.

What it actually does

Under the hood, PokerPulse is a tournament clock, a player and elimination tracker, a payout calculator, and a cash game ledger, wired together so a blind level change, a bust-out, and a payout all stay in sync automatically. Leagues carry standings across a whole series, so a group that plays every week doesn't have to rebuild a leaderboard by hand.

Two views make it easy to share what's happening: the Display page is built for a TV or projector at the table, and the Live View page is built for an individual phone or laptop, both viewable by anyone with the share code, no account required.
