Your player connects to the lobby at 8:47 PM. The server assigns a seat, shuffles the deck with RNG-certified randomness, and deals hole cards in 120 milliseconds. Your tournament engine tracks 240 simultaneous tables, adjusts blinds every twelve minutes, and moves players as tables break. Hand history writes to your database — not a vendor's — so your business owns the player data, the rake logic, and the entire codebase. White-label platforms charge 30–50% of gross gaming revenue in perpetuity because they control the server. Custom development costs $25,000–$95,000 upfront, then you keep every dollar of rake after hosting and compliance.

Perguntas frequentes
How much does an online poker website cost?
Online poker platforms range from $25,000 for a platform using pre-built poker engines like EvenBet Gaming with standard cash game and tournament formats, to $80,000+ for a fully custom poker room with proprietary WebSocket game engine, advanced tournament scheduling, player prop betting, and multi-table support. Fixed-fee with milestone payments.
How does multiplayer poker work technically?
Players connect via WebSocket to a real-time game server that manages table state, card dealing, betting rounds, pot calculation, and hand resolution. Each action broadcasts instantly to all seated players. The server handles disconnect protection, auto-fold timers, and reconnection without losing hand state.
What tournament formats do you support?
Multi-table tournaments (MTT) with thousands of players, sit-and-go (SNG) from 2 to 180 players, turbo and hyper-turbo blind structures, bounty/knockout tournaments, satellites, guaranteed prize pool events, and scheduled daily/weekly/monthly series. Fully configurable blind levels, payouts, and late registration windows.
How is the RNG certified for card dealing?
We use cryptographically secure random number generators certified by independent testing labs like GLI, eCOGRA, or BMM Testlabs. The RNG generates shuffled decks that are mathematically unpredictable and provably fair. Certification documentation is provided for your gaming license application.
Can players play multiple tables simultaneously?
Yes. Multi-tabling support lets players sit at up to 12 tables simultaneously with a tiled or stacked table view. Each table runs as an independent WebSocket connection. Players can resize, rearrange, and set preferred seating positions across all active tables.
Do you build hand history and player statistics?
Yes. Complete hand history with searchable replay showing every action, bet size, pot odds, and showdown results. Player statistics dashboards track VPIP, PFR, aggression factor, win rates by position, tournament results, and profit/loss over time.
How do you handle rake and revenue?
Configurable rake structures for cash games (percentage with cap), tournament fees (flat buy-in percentage), and time-based collection options. Rakeback programs with automatic calculation and crediting. Real-time rake reports and player contribution tracking in the admin dashboard.
How long does a poker website take to build?
A poker platform using a pre-built engine like EvenBet takes 8 to 12 weeks. A fully custom platform with proprietary WebSocket game server, advanced tournaments, and multi-table support takes 14 to 20 weeks. We work in sprint cycles with playable demo builds throughout development.
