Its regulars played when the club was open, and then they went home. Every hour the doors were closed, every holiday and every day the dealers were off, was an hour with no games and no rake. The players didn’t stop wanting to play. The club just had nowhere to host them outside its own four walls. ## What they launched The club moved its game online under its own name with Silent Aces: - **Their own branded app** on iOS, Android, web and desktop, so players see the club’s name, not someone else’s. - **Cash tables that never close**, for the games the club’s regulars already play. - **Tournaments around the clock**, scheduled so there is always one about to start. - **Their own payment gateway**, so deposits and withdrawals go straight to the club’s account. - **Location checks and geo-restrictions**, so players are accepted only where the club’s licence allows. Rules differ from state to state in the US. - **An iTech Labs certified RNG** for every shuffle and deal. Setup, hosting and 24/7 technical support are handled by our team. The club runs its games and its players. ## After: $100K a month in rake, around the clock Today the club’s tables and tournaments run **24 hours a day, 7 days a week**. The app is now generating **$100K a month in rake**. That is extra money. The live room still runs as before; the online games make money in the hours the club used to be closed, and from players who play from home as well as at the club. Even when the dealers are on holiday, the tables keep running. ## Why it worked - **The players already existed.** The club didn’t need to find a new audience. It gave its own regulars a way to keep playing between visits. - **Something is always running.** Cash tables and a tournament schedule with no gaps mean a player who opens the app at any hour finds a game. - **The brand stayed theirs.** Players play in the club’s own app, so every game builds the club’s name and the club keeps the player relationship. - **Payments are built in.** No chips settled by hand through agents and chat messages. ## What this means for your club If your club closes at night, your players are free to play somewhere else in those hours. This club stopped losing those hours and now earns from them every day. Results depend on your player base, your games, your rake and your local rules, and aren’t guaranteed. A club of a different size will see different numbers. But the principle is the same for every live club: tables that never close earn in hours a live room can’t. > Real-money poker rules differ by country and by US state. The club operator is responsible for the licences its location requires. Silent Aces provides the tools to enforce them, not legal advice.
