The Poker Atlas

What The Poker Atlas does

The Poker Atlas (legally Overlay Gaming Corp.) is a Las Vegas-headquartered digital platform that aggregates poker-room information, tournament schedules, cash-game listings, and player reviews across North America and select international markets. The company was founded in 2012 (originally as All Vegas Poker) and operates a website, native iOS and Android applications, and a community forum (TableTalk) where players share reviews, strategy, and trip reports. Its technical core is TableCaptain™, real-time tracking software installed at partner poker rooms that surfaces live tournament clocks, blind structures, prize pools, and in-progress cash-game counts to the PokerAtlas platform.

The business operates a hybrid B2C/B2B monetization model. On the consumer side, the platform is free with a paid PokerAtlas PRO subscription tier ($7.99/month or $69.99/year) that unlocks the Valuetown™ deals marketplace, calendar sync, custom reminders, personalized waitlist aliases, and an exclusive PRO identity badge. On the B2B side, the company earns partnership/affiliate revenue from poker rooms and casinos through tournament data licensing, TableCaptain™ installations, and promotional placement on the platform.

The company also operates the PokerAtlas Tour, an owned branded live tournament series hosted at flagship partner rooms including Resorts World Las Vegas, Texas Card House Dallas, TCH Social Austin, bestbet St. Augustine, Thunder Valley Casino, Wynn Las Vegas, and the Venetian Las Vegas, featuring guaranteed prize pools and trophy events. PokerAtlas serves two primary customer types: live and tournament poker players seeking rooms, schedules, and reviews (B2C), and poker rooms and casinos seeking player traffic and tournament-management modernization (B2B). Leadership comprises Jon Friedberg as President and CEO, and the company is privately held with 1–10 employees and no disclosed institutional funding.
