PokerChips.io popularized the idea of a virtual chip remote for real card games: create a game, share a link, bet from your phone. PokerChip.live starts from the same idea and adds the rest of the night — blinds, pots, side pots, buy-ins, cash-outs, automatic settlement, and stats for recurring groups. Both run free in the browser.
Same link-and-play simplicity
Adds blinds, side pots, and settlement
Stats and clubs for recurring games
Both are free browser tools for tracking chips while you play with real cards. Details reflect public product information at the time of writing.

A plain chip remote works for the first hour. The friction shows up later: who posted the blind, how a three-way all-in splits, who rebought, and who owes whom at the end. Those are exactly the moments a fuller tracker handles automatically.
Create a room, share the link or QR code, and everyone bets from their phone while real cards hit the table. No downloads and no accounts required to join a game.
PokerChip.live records every buy-in and final stack, so settlement is a screen, not an argument. Recurring groups get standings and stats across game nights.
