FizzPoker is a browser-based No-Limit Texas Hold’em platform that runs private tournament-style freezeouts for 2-9 players. A host deals a table, chooses blind speed (3, 5, 10 or 15 minutes), and shares a join link so friends can sit without downloads or accounts; tables for 2-4 players with up to one bot require no signup, while a free account unlocks up to nine seats and more bots. Everyone starts with the same stack, blinds rise on the chosen cadence until one player has all chips, and hosts can add bots at five skill levels to practice or fill empty seats.
Training and analysis are built in: a post-game Fizz Score compares signed-in players’ decisions to GTO models and tags plays as acceptable, inaccuracies, mistakes, or blunders; a Poker IQ test grades twelve hands; and a wide set of tools and guides (equity and pot-odds calculators, starting-hand charts, blind-structure tools, GTO and AI primers) support learning. The service is free, play-money only, and maintained as a hobby project with no payments, prizes or real-money gambling, pitched for casual game nights, remote play over FaceTime/Discord, and practice without installs.
