Doug and Greg as Tikes

Donohoe Digital is the 'DD' behind DD Poker. We used to be comprised of Doug Donohoe, the founder and Greg King, a friend of Doug's since kindergarten.

About DD Poker 3

Donohoe Digital released DD Poker 1 in June 2004. It was one of the very first poker software products on the market and was pretty popular. DD Poker 2 arrived in Fall 2005 with major new features such as online play and a sophisticated odds calculator. Improvements were made consistently over a dozen point releases culminating with the release of DD Poker 2.5 in Summer 2006. A major upgrade to the Online Game Portal was released in Spring 2008. DD Poker 3.0 was released as donation-ware in January 2009. It continued to be updated sporadically until it was shutdown in July 2017. DD Poker was revived as open source software in August 2024.

Practice - Learn - Improve Your Game

Practice playing limit, pot limit and no limit texas hold'em against computer opponents that are modeled after real types of playing styles such as Fish, Rock, Weak-Tight and Solid. Customize your own player types and specify the mix of players in each tournament.

Choose from 15 pre-defined tournament formats like the World Championship or design your own, specifying antes, blinds, buy-in, rebuys, add-ons, and prizes.

Play Online With Friends and Family

DD Poker offers the best way to play poker with friends and family on your local area network (LAN) or over the Internet. Using a peer-2-peer architecture, DD Poker does not depend on a central server. Because you can play on the LAN behind a firewall, it is ideal for playing at work (on your lunch break, of course). DD Poker is like having your very own online poker, without the rake!

Analyze Your Play

DD Poker tracks every hand of poker you play, whether online or during practice. Use the DD Poker statistics to identify the hands you play well or poorly.

Use the Calculator Tool to calculate showdown odds, evaluate the strength of your hand, determine your outs and figure out where you stand compared to your opponents.

Full Featured Poker Clock

Run a tournament during your weekly poker night! Define the tournament structure including buys-ins, rebuy, add-ons and prizes. The built-in poker clock is just like those used in major tournaments. The clock is helpful because it lets you know when it is time to raise the blinds or end re-buys.
