HouseClock

For poker rooms

Run the whole floor from one machine.

HouseClock is built for the people responsible for the room: tournament directors and poker room managers who need equipment that is correct, offline, and doesn't bill by the table.

One machine, every screen

Drive every clock and cash board in the house from a single computer. Any session routes to any screen, and layouts return when a screen is reconnected.

One flat price, not per table

The Venue licence is $499 a year for the whole room. No per-table fee, no per-seat charge, and no account to provision before a tournament can start.

An outage never stops a tournament

HouseClock runs fully offline. A dropped connection or an internet outage has no effect on a live event, because nothing you do during one depends on a network.

Runs on hardware you already own

A single ordinary computer drives the room. There's no dedicated appliance to buy and no approved hardware list to satisfy.

Multiple events at once

Run two tournaments and a cash game side by side, each with its own clock, structure, and prize pool, each autosaved on its own.

Nothing leaves the machine

Player names and phone numbers stay on the computer they were entered on. No player data is transmitted anywhere, because there is nowhere for it to go.

Offline by design

A network outage never stops a tournament.

Cloud-dependent systems put your clock at the mercy of a connection. HouseClock runs on the machine in front of you. No network, nothing to go down.

How it compares

HouseClock vs. legacy room systems.

No competitor named, and every claim below about HouseClock is one the product can back. The other column describes the common shape of older systems, not any one product.

Screens per computer
One machine drives every screen in the house.
Commonly a dedicated computer for each clock.
Licensing
$499 a year for the whole room, with no per-table or per-seat fee.
Often licensed per table, per seat, or per year.
Internet
Runs fully offline; an outage never stops an event.
Often depends on a live connection or a hosted service.
Player data
Stays on the machine; nothing is transmitted.
Player data frequently lives in a vendor's cloud.
Hardware
Runs on a computer you already own.
Often requires dedicated or approved hardware.
Concurrent events
Multiple tournaments and cash boards at once.
Often one event per installation.

What it costs

$499/ year

One card room, commercial use, every screen in the house. That is a fraction of what conventional room systems cost, and there is no per-table or per-seat fee stacked on top.

The Venue licence includes:

  • Display Manager and multi-screen routing
  • Multiple concurrent tournaments and cash boards
  • Cash game waitlists with spoken call-ins
  • Venue branding on the board
  • Priority support and commercial use rights
