Start a Live Timer

When you sit down at the table, start a live session with one tap and PokerCharts begins tracking your time automatically. The running timer shows your current session duration, and your elapsed time is used to calculate a real-time hourly rate as you update your stack. Having a visible clock helps you stay aware of how long you have been playing, which is one of the simplest but most effective discipline tools available. The timer runs in the background, so you can use your phone for other things without interrupting the session.

Track Rebuys and Add-Ons

Poker sessions rarely involve a single buy-in, and PokerCharts makes it easy to log additional rebuys and add-ons as they happen. Each rebuy is timestamped and added to your running total investment, so your profit and loss calculations are always accurate. You never have to try to remember how many times you topped up at the end of the night. The rebuy history is saved with your session record, giving you long-term data on how your rebuy frequency correlates with session outcomes.

Stack Size Tracking

Log your current stack at any point during the session to track how your chip count evolves over time. PokerCharts uses stack updates to calculate your unrealized profit, current hourly rate, and session trajectory in real time. You can glance at your phone and see whether you are up two buy-ins or down one without doing mental math at the table. Tracking stack size over time also creates a session graph that helps you review the flow of the session afterward and identify key turning points.

Close Out When Done

Ending your session is as simple as entering your final cash-out amount and tapping close. PokerCharts automatically calculates your net profit or loss, total time played, hourly rate, and number of rebuys, then saves everything to your session history. The closed session immediately contributes to your running statistics, charts, and insights. You walk away from the table with your results already logged, analyzed, and integrated into your long-term tracking — no data entry required when you get home.

Common questions

How do I track a live poker session?

Open PokerCharts on your phone when you sit down, tap "Start session", select the venue and game type, enter your buy-in. The session timer starts and runs in the background. As the night unfolds, log rebuys when they happen and update your stack count when you take a break. When you cash out, enter the final amount and close the session — PokerCharts saves the result, calculates your hourly rate, and adds it to your bankroll.

What's the best way to log rebuys in cash games?

Log rebuys as they happen, not at the end of the night. Most players who try to remember rebuys later miss one or two — over hundreds of sessions that compounds into a significant bankroll error. PokerCharts lets you tap "Add rebuy", enter the amount, and continue playing in seconds. The total investment updates immediately so your running profit/loss is always accurate.

Can I track poker sessions offline?

Yes. Once you've added PokerCharts to your home screen (one-tap install), the app loads from cache and works offline. Sessions log to local storage and sync to your cloud account the next time you're online. Useful for casinos with weak Wi-Fi, tournaments where phones go on airplane mode, or anywhere cell service is patchy. You'll never lose a session because the network dropped.

Does PokerCharts work for tournament tracking too?

Yes — tournaments use the same live session flow. Start the session when you take your seat (entering the buy-in), log rebuys/re-entries during play, and close out when you bust or cash. Tournament-specific fields (place finished, total players, prize pool) are on the close-out screen. Your tournament results feed into the ROI dashboard and ITM% tracking automatically.
