Overview
Keep the home game easy to settle.
Good Hand gives a home poker host one place to record players, buy-ins, rebuys, final chip values, and payments. Game amounts use integer cents, and blinds stay fixed unless changed manually.
Start from a saved template, resume an open table, or return to an unfinished game to complete cash-outs and payments. The app keeps local game history and player results between sessions.
Current functionality
From the first buy-in to the last payment.
Set up the table
Choose currency, standard buy-in, fixed blinds, and payment method. Save and reuse settings as a game template.
Track the game
Add players, record rebuys, and enter exact cash-out amounts. End a session and complete missing counts later.
Balance the chips
Settlement previews appear after all cash-outs reconcile with total buy-ins. Track net payments between players or gross cash-outs from the game bank.
Close the loop
Mark payments paid and copy a message containing only unpaid settlements. Review past winners and aggregate player results by currency.
Share the table
With sharing configured, send a read-only live link or a co-host link that allows another device to continue scoring the same game.
Storage and sharing
Local by default, shared by choice.
Offline play
Once cached, the installed app and saved games work offline. Export and restore JSON backups to move local records between browsers or devices.
Explicit access
Live sharing uses Firebase when configured. Anyone with a viewer link can see names and amounts; a co-host link grants editing access. Pausing or ending sharing retains the last published record.
Payment bookkeeping
Cash-outs and payment checkmarks record what happened at the table. Good Hand does not transfer money. Incomplete games stay out of lifetime player results.
