    Full walkthrough: how to run a home poker game from a laptop.

    Put the game on the TV

    Open Game Display for a cash game or Room Display for a tournament on a TV or second screen, so the whole table can see the game. Both are part of Host Pro, and a free Pro night includes Game Display.

    Laptop, desktop or iPad

    Use the screen you already have at the table. On a phone, use the HG Poker app, or add the web app to your Home Screen (how).

    Phone, iPad or computer

    One web app, every screen

    Open play.hgpoker.io on whatever is at the table. The layout fits the screen; your account, players and games stay the same.

    • A live cash game in the HG Poker web app on a phone: the pot, the players and a Rebuy button for each one (demo players)

      Phone

      The same screens as the iPhone app, in your browser. Add it to your Home Screen and it opens full screen, like an app.

    • The HG Poker web app on an iPad: the sidebar on the left and a live cash game with every player's buy-ins on the right (demo players)

      iPad

      A sidebar on the left and your game on the right, so the whole night fits on one screen at the table.

    • The HG Poker web app on a laptop: sidebar, live pot and the player list with Rebuy and Clock out (demo players)

      Laptop and desktop

      The sidebar layout with room to spare. Good for running the night and for looking back at your group's history.
