Our Expert Score
Pokernut Tournament Timer is a 'must-have' for anyone who hosts home poker games. It’s not a game itself, but it’s the most professional-feeling utility app I’ve used for managing a tournament. The interface is high-contrast and large enough that players can see the remaining time from across a room, which is a common failing of other timers.
The level of customization is what sets it apart. You can set up your own blind structures, include 'ante' levels, and even program in break times. It takes the stress out of being the 'TD' (Tournament Director) and lets you focus on playing your own hand. It turns a messy home game into something that feels like a real casino event. Reliable, clean, and incredibly useful.
Features
Fully customizable blind schedules
Large, high-visibility timer
Automated payout calculator
Configurable break reminders
Sound alerts for level changes
Tips & Walkthrough
Use the 'Structure' menu to input your starting blinds and how often they should increase (e.g., every 15 minutes). You can save these structures as presets for future poker nights.
Gameplays
Input the buy-in amount and the number of players. The app will automatically suggest a payout structure for the top 3 or top 5 players, taking the math out of the end of the night.

Q&A
Yes, while designed for Hold'em, the timer and blind structures work for Omaha or any other tournament-style card game.
Ratings & Reviews
Added tournaments
Sun Nov 28 2010 Hawkeye FanGreat app if I can find a way to access my added tournaments! Help! I can only start the preloaded tourneys and not the ones I created. Any insight would be much appreciated.
Solid, intuitive, and reliable
Sat Oct 16 2010 LawBeforeGraceVersion 1.0 is a solid release as a tourney timer. The developer is very responsive and committed to adding features while keeping the interface easy to use. I've purchased and used several poker timers (for both desktops and mobile devices), this one looks to be the best of the bunch.
Greatness
Fri Aug 05 2011 Pajarita FloNot sure what sort of problem the prior reviewer had, this worked exactly as expected for me and was very easy to use. I created custom tourneys with my own structure, blinds, antes, and payouts with ease. Much better UI than the other timers. Ridiculous bargain at $3.
Best UI, but short on features
Sun Mar 20 2011 BishopDCAll of the other similar poker apps in the store have UGLY user interfaces which I refuse to pay money for. This app however has a clean, professional UI. The trade-off right now is features. This app is missing payout structure, adding/managing players, statistics, and many of the other features that are common in this type of app. That said, the app works as advertised and for only a couple bucks I can't really complain. It would be great though if you could set the break time and the player clock, because we use a 30 sec clock & 15 min breaks most of the time.
Good functionality, but crashes and needs more customization
Sat Feb 01 2014 Good GeorgeI like the app since it provides the basic functionality needed for the game. I kept trying to change the alert sound in setting and it kept crashing. Also, I wish there is a way to customize the SB and BB more than the fixed levels they have. The intervals between the levels are off.
