CHIP — Our new in-game currency: one dollar-backed token, one chain, instant buy-ins and no gas fees.
Global Chat — One shared room for every signed-in player, reachable from the lobby, the side panel and table chat.
Hand History search — Paste a hand ID to jump straight to that hand, or pick a custom date range.
Hot Tables in the lobby — Hot games now sit in their own strip, with the exact bonus rakeback on the row.
CHIP is Phenom's new in-game currency — one dollar-backed token on one chain, replacing USDT on Polygon.

Deposit any major stablecoin and receive CHIP instantly in your wallet
Instant everything — tournament registration and unregistration, cash game buy-in and cash-out
Gas fees are covered by Phenom — you never see one
Cash out your way — choose the stablecoin and the chain you want to be paid on, instead of bridging by hand afterwards
One wallet, one chain — everything runs on Base, so the old bridging step is gone
1 CHIP always redeems for 1 dollar-backed stablecoin, with reserves fully backed and auditable on-chain
Auto Top-Up keeps your stack loaded without a separate reload step
First-login setup is a single flow — authorising your wallet runs straight into converting to CHIP, with no dead wait and no raw signature prompts

One shared room for every signed-in player — open it from the player side panel on desktop, the GLOBAL tab in table chat, or the top-left menu on mobile
Everyone in the room has passed KYC, and moderators watch it with the same tools they use at the table
A NEW MESSAGES divider marks where you left off — arriving in the room no longer counts as reading it
Unread dots on the chat entry points, so you can tell there's something new without opening the panel

Search by hand ID — paste the ID straight from the replayer and go to that exact hand
Custom date range filter, so you're no longer stuck looking at Today
Hands from older sessions now turn up instead of the search claiming they don't exist

Hot Tables now have their own strip above the All Tables list, so a hot game shows up even when your filters would have hidden it
The exact bonus rakeback you'd earn by sitting down now shows on the lobby row and in the preview flyout — no hover or tap needed
Hot Tables moved from last to second in the lobby category tabs
Top seats no longer sit underneath the multi-table tabs — players at the top of the ring are fully visible on every table size
The multi-table tab strip no longer nudges sideways when a tab lights up for your turn, so you can't mis-tap onto the wrong table
Slide-out menu labels are larger and easier to read
Tournament info: bigger icons, a right-sized Register button, and breathing room above it
The player info modal now scrolls on short screens — the notes list and "Write a note…" box are reachable again
A blocked chat message now tells you it was blocked instead of silently vanishing
The poker table renders at its intended size and position again — felt, seats, chips, buttons and fonts were all being drawn about 8% small, and the felt sat too low
Your action always registers. If a click is lost or refused anywhere between your table and the game engine, the action bar comes back instead of leaving you button-less until you time out
A table move keeps you in the window you're playing in instead of opening a second window and kicking you out of the first
Fixed duplicate table windows opening — one per open lobby window — when a seat came free
Cash lobby sorting now counts who's actually in the hand — a 5/6 table with three players sitting out no longer ranks alongside a 5/6 table where all five are playing
Lobby category tabs scroll cleanly at narrow widths, with a faded edge and paging arrows instead of a stray scrollbar
Cash table flyout splits Players and Info into switchable tabs, and now opens on mobile
Clicking the mini table in the lobby opens the table directly, clicking anywhere else on the row opens the flyout.
Countdown timers no longer jiggle as their digits tick
PKO bounty badges rebuilt to match their design — status-red treatment with the 3D PKO skull
Mini-table circles now match their design-system styles
Chat moderation now catches insults in languages other than English
PHNM price no longer stalls the page when the price feed is slow
Agent dashboard loads instantly, no more long delays
Fixed all-in win percentages being materially wrong — post-flop equity is now exact, both in the badge and in the replayer
Fixed run-it-three equities counting duplicate dead cards
Fixed lowball showdown labels naming two unequal hands identically (both "6 Low"), which made an outright win look like a missed chop
Fixed the minimum raise after consecutive all-ins being offered below the previous all-in
Fixed Raise Any and Discard pre-action buttons at fixed-limit tables causing action buttons to disappear and timing you out
Fixed a pre-action click landing at the exact moment your turn starts being dropped, leaving you timed out and sat out
Fixed the bust-out modal during late registration — Re-Enter button, late-reg countdown and tournament title are back, and re-entry no longer spins forever
Fixed Hide Satellites in the tournament filters doing nothing
Fixed the Registration Successful toast appearing in every open window, and calling a re-entry a fresh registration
Fixed the tournament registration modal twitching when you press Register
Fixed satellite seat winners not being registered into the target tournament when settlement stalled
Fixed OFC cash tables getting stuck mid-hand and never finishing
Fixed deposit bonus awards occasionally paying the wrong amount
