Fair and verifiable
Every hand is checked
After every hand the watchdog recounts: chips, pots, no card twice, all cards from the stack fixed in advance. If anything is off, the game stops at once. You see the result above every live table.
Verify it yourself
Each hand's check value is fixed before it starts. After the tournament the hand history shows the stack and the secret: SHA-256 of them gives exactly that check value.
Collusion stands out
Tournament directors see who keeps folding the better hand to the same player or never raises against him – and can review every hand right after it ends. Nobody sees hidden cards during a hand – except during a supervision by Project Ronin, which is then shown at the table.
