Poker Night Live server
Multiplayer poker can't be a static page: the dealer has to live somewhere nobody can peek at the deck.
It runs on Cloudflare (free plan) as a Worker with one Durable Object per table:
shared/poker-engine.js rules, hand ranking, side pots (used by the server and the page)
server/poker/ Cloudflare Worker + Durable Object (the dealer), and tests
games/poker-live/ the page players open
- Live server:
https://poker-live.dixshant4.workers.dev (set as API in games/poker-live/index.html).
- Deploy after changing
server/ or shared/: cd server/poker && npm install && npx wrangler deploy
(needs CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN and CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID in the environment).
- Tests:
node server/poker/test/engine.test.mjs (rules fuzz test), and with npx wrangler dev running,
BASE=http://127.0.0.1:8787 node server/poker/test/table.test.mjs (bots play a full table).
- Try the page against a local server:
/games/poker-live/?api=http://127.0.0.1:8787.
Video. By default phones send video to each other directly (peer-to-peer), with the server only passing
the connection messages along. That's free and works on most Wi-Fi and 4G, but some mobile networks block direct
connections. For sturdier video, create a free LiveKit Cloud project and, in the
Cloudflare dashboard under Workers & Pages → poker-live → Settings → Variables and Secrets, add:
| Name | Value |
|---|
LIVEKIT_URL | the project's wss://….livekit.cloud URL |
LIVEKIT_API_KEY | API key from LiveKit → Settings → API Keys |
LIVEKIT_API_SECRET | the matching API secret (add it as a Secret) |
New tables then use LiveKit automatically; if it can't connect, the page falls back to peer-to-peer.
Video between phones on mobile data needs a relay (TURN) server, because carriers block direct connections.
Create one in the Cloudflare dashboard under Realtime → TURN Server, then add its two values to the poker-live
Worker as secrets: TURN_KEY_ID and TURN_KEY_API_TOKEN. The server then hands every player short-lived relay
credentials, and connections that can't go direct are relayed automatically (free up to Cloudflare's monthly allowance).
