LAN Poker

A real-time poker table app for LAN parties. Cards stay physical — the app replaces chips, pot math, and hand evaluation. One device runs the server; everyone else joins through a phone browser on the same network.

Features

• Full poker rules — blinds, button rotation, heads-up inversion, side pots, all-ins, uncalled bet returns, split pots
• Auto-settlement — when all board and hole cards are entered, the app evaluates hands and awards pots automatically
• Credit system — burnout credit, loss bonus, or disabled; nobody busts out for the night unless you choose that
• Leaderboard — live scoring based on balance and credit taken; final standings when the session ends
• Admin panel — drag-to-reorder seats, pick dealer before each hand, enter board cards, adjust balances, declare winners
• Seat reorder — rearrange player positions to match the real table by holding and dragging
• Card picker — tap any card slot to pick from a full 52-card deck with suit icons
• Player hole cards — enter your own cards, hidden by default with a reveal toggle
• Transfers — send chips to other players between hands
• Mobile-first dark UI — built for phones around a dimly lit table
• Reconnect-safe — lock your phone, unlock it, same state; balances and hand history survive restarts
