Everything in one place

A poker blind timer that manages the whole tournament

Blinder handles the jobs normally spread across a clock, spreadsheet, notebook and group chat.

01

Blind clock and schedules

Create custom levels, breaks and antes, adjust the timer live and save structures for another game.

02

Players, tables and seats

Add players, assign seats, open full table views and keep empty seats visible throughout the event.

03

Rebuys, add-ons and bounties

Set costs and limits, record purchases and run standard or progressive knockout tournaments.

04

Phone remote control

Join the tournament room from another device and control the timer without standing beside the main screen.

05

Fullscreen TV display

Show the clock, player list, table assignments or results on a television for everyone in the room.

06

Save and resume

Your current tournament is saved in the browser so an accidental refresh does not mean starting again.
