Description
PoolHost replaces the whiteboard at pool night. Create a double elimination, single elimination or round robin event, put the QR code on the TV, and players join from their own phone with no app or account. Matches go to the next free table, scores update live with one tap, and a TV display shows the bracket to the whole room. Handicap races (A to D), late arrivals, printable brackets and prize pool payouts are built in. 100% free, no event limit. From the maker of ChessHost.
