How to Run Two Poker Tables on One iPad

Decide whether the tables share one event

If both tables are part of the same tournament, use the same blind schedule and synchronized breaks. If they are separate sit-and-go events, keep stacks, levels, and pause controls independent.

Label every clock clearly

Use table names such as Table 1 and Table 2, or room names that dealers already use. Similar-looking clocks without labels cause avoidable mistakes when one table pauses.

Test independent controls

Before play, pause only one table, advance only one level, and verify which audio alert belongs to which clock. Restore both clocks to the correct starting state after testing.

Plan table balancing

For one tournament across two tables, decide who moves players and when tables combine. The clocks can stay synchronized, but seating decisions still need one responsible floor person.

WTGB split-screen mode can display up to four tournament clocks, so the same preparation method scales beyond two tables.
