PokerDIY Tourney Manager is a free program to run your live poker tourneys and manage poker games from start to finish. You can run it online or download it to your own computer. It has poker timers, blind management and chip calculators, amongst other tools. When designing PTM, our goal was to make it simple and easy to use and provide all the functionality found in existing poker tourney management software. There are 3 good reasons to use PTM: It's simple and easy to use (did we mention this?) It's free…
Anyone can use PTM but we have had good feedback from home poker players as well as large bar poker leagues running commerical tournaments. Here are some typical scenarios: 1) Bob plays hosts a home poker game with his mates every week. He used to use an egg-timer to count down till the next blinds and would record all the results on an excel spreadsheet. Now he uses PokerDIY Tourney Manager to track results, monitor the poker blinds and generally make sure everything runs smoothly. 2) Mary is a poker tournament director for a profressional…
There's no catch - it's free and always will be, just like PokerDIY. We make our money from advertising and PokerDIY PRO customers. This is why we can offer our poker software for free. Plus, the more people that use it/download and install it, the more people that can help improve the software for everyone. A lot of poker tournament management software charge between $10 to $100 to use their software - why not install ours and see if it meets your needs and spend that money on beer? If you don't like it,…
Yes! You can download and install PokerDIY Tourney Manager onto your laptop or computer (for free of course) and run it without an internet connection. Just run it here on PokerDIY and Right-Click anywhere on PTM and click on "Install this on your Computer". This will download and install it so that you can run offline in the future. Troubleshooting You will have to make sure your computer supports Silverlight - the easiest way to tell is to just go to the PTM page here on PokerDIY and if you see it then…
Yes! this is exactly who it is for - there's no limit to the number of players you can have on PTM so you can use it for a heads-up tourney or a bar poker league for 1000 players. Keep an eye out for it at the next WSOP! And it's still free for large commercial leagues.
Great - please post it here and we can get votes on it to see if it will add value to PTM. If it does then we can discuss it and get it into an upcoming version. There is a slight chance that PTM can already do what you need - we aimed to make it as customizable as possible, but easy to use, so a lot of functionality is hidden behind menus etc. Lets discuss your requirement and see how we can help. For the record, we LOVE hearing feedback - this…
Yes, your information is completely private. All preferences and data is stored locally on YOUR computer, even when accessing the online version of PokerDIY Tourney Manager. For example, if you set up a tourney with blinds xyz and save it, Bob who is using PTM online at the same time has no way of seeing your blinds/information. If you download and install PTM to your own computer then your logged on user (in Windows/Mac) will have their own information store. If someone else logs onto your computer with their own user account they will not…
Good news and bad news. We have a scaled down version of PokerDIY Tourney Manager for the the Windows Phone 7 mobile (WP7) but not for the iPhone or Android. We hope to change this soon - please let us know if you would like to see PTM on your iPhone or Android.... You can see screenshots of PTM mobile here or download it for free from the Microsoft Zune Marketplace. Please use the PTM forums for any questions regarding the mobile version of PTM. It has fewer features than the desktop version (for example, resizing does…
PTM runs on Microsoft Silverlight, which is a browser plugin to allow feature-rich internet applications and cool programs online such as PokerDIY Tourney Manager! Silverlight is an exciting technology from Microsoft which is a lot like Flash, which you may have seen on the internet. You can read more about it here. Once you have installed the Microsoft Silverlight plugin (you probably already have it installed as it is all over the web already) then PTM will load up automatically and you're good to go. This means that any computer, laptop or device (like…
