Everything you need to know about playing on MavensPoker.
MavensPoker is a private online poker platform powered by PokerMavens. Players host their own games — cash ring games and tournaments — and invite others to play. Each game is run by the player who created it.
No password, no email required. The moment you visit, your account is created automatically from your device — you’re ready to play instantly. You can add a recovery email later in your profile to access your account from another device.
Click “Host Game”, give it a name, and choose a cash ring game or a tournament (scheduled or sit & go). Your table is created instantly and you become its manager — from the manage page you control the settings, the players, and everyone’s chip balances.
A game’s host adds you by your poker name. Once added, the game appears in your lobby — click it and the PokerMavens table loads right in the page, already logged in, with your chip balance for that game loaded automatically.
In your profile you can claim a poker name one time. This is the name other players see at the tables and the name hosts use to add you to their games, so choose carefully — it’s permanent and can’t be changed.
Each game has its own chip wallet, and the game’s manager controls your balance in it — depositing or withdrawing chips as you buy in or cash out. Every change is recorded in your personal ledger for that game, so you can follow along with exactly what the manager did.
Each game keeps a personalized transaction history for every player. Open a game from your lobby to see your running balance and every deposit, withdrawal, and session result — full transparency between you and the host.
MavenPoints are the universal house currency tracked on your account. They’ll power community rewards and unlock special features for your games — more on that soon.
Yes. You can host multiple games and be a member of as many as hosts add you to. Each game keeps its own separate chip wallet and ledger; switching games loads the right wallet automatically.
All poker is powered by PokerMavens by Briggsoft, a mature, proven self-hosted poker server. It handles the dealing, the tables, and the chip transactions on dedicated infrastructure.
