The tournament director that runs itself
No more spreadsheets, manual blind calculations, or arguments about who owes what. HomeGame Director is the all-in-one tool for running poker tournaments with friends, from kickoff to final standings.
The problem with home tournaments
Running a poker tournament with friends gets complicated fast: someone has to watch the timer, calculate blinds by hand, track the prizepool as rebuys come in, and rebalance tables from memory whenever a player busts. The result: whoever's organizing ends up playing less, and calculation mistakes create tension at the table.
How HomeGame Director works
You set up your tournament in a few minutes (buy-in, starting stack, blind structure, rebuys allowed), and the app handles the rest:
- ●A blind timer and structure that advance automatically, visible to everyone
- ●Choose from several predefined structures (Turbo, Normal, Deep Stack, Ultra Deep Stack) or build your own, level by level
- ●Configure your tournament chipset so every player knows the value of each chip color
- ●Add players in seconds and pick your payout structure (winner-take-all, multiple paid places, or a custom split)
- ●Advanced table rebalancing with automatic suggested player moves
- ●Full KO / Bounty format management, with bounties calculated automatically on every elimination
- ●Real-time prizepool calculation, updated with every rebuy or add-on
- ●A dedicated TV screen: timer, blinds, standings and chip leader displayed live on any screen
- ●Players can enter their own stack via a shared link, so you don't have to type everything in yourself
Who is it for?
HomeGame Director is built for anyone who regularly organizes poker nights with friends, home tournament series, and more broadly anyone tired of being the referee on top of being a player.
