Poker Boss keeps your cash game organized from start to finish. One person runs the site while everyone else just plays. At the end of the night, the host enters each player's chip total, and Poker Boss calculates every player's net result and the simplest settle-up plan with the fewest payments.

Players do not need to exchange money before the game or interrupt play just to buy more chips. And if you use the generated Venmo links, players do not need to bring cash or make change at the end of the night. Settling up becomes faster, simpler, and just a tap away.

Poker Boss was built by a home cash game host with more than 30 years of experience and a deep understanding of the friction points that come with running and settling up a game.

No. Poker Boss helps the host track who is playing, buy-ins, and chip totals, then helps players settle up at the end. It does not move money. Payments happen outside the app using each player's preferred payment method. Venmo links generated by the site simply open a payment with the correct payee and amount filled in, and players review and send the payment themselves.

No. It’s designed for cash games, sometimes called ring games, where players buy in, buy more chips, and cash out when the night ends. It does not model tournament structures, blind levels, payouts by place, or elimination brackets.

Only the host needs a Google account. The host is the player using the site to mark who is playing, log buy-ins, and enter final chip counts. Everyone else can follow along with a join code or invite link without signing up.

Other players do not need an account or need to sign in. Players either tap "Follow Along" on this page and enter the join code, or open the invite link the host shares. Additional buy-ins and results update live in spectator mode.

When the game ends, Poker Boss totals who is up or down, figures out the fewest payments needed to settle everyone up, and generates Venmo links to speed things up. Think of it like Splitwise, but built for poker nights.

After results are calculated, Poker Boss generates Venmo links with the correct payee and amount. Each player should only tap the link for their own payment. The link opens the Venmo app on their phone when installed, and players can review before sending. If some players don’t use Venmo, they can settle with cash or another preferred payment method.

Each host’s data is tied to their account and protected so only the right people can see it. Players only see games they have joined, and hosts only see their own players, groups, and history.
