Introducing Highlights: Your Best Poker Hands, Picked and Saved for You
Published at: October 10, 2026
Every poker night has a hand people keep talking about. The river that saved your stack. The pot that was way bigger than it should have been. The bluff you couldn’t resist showing.
Usually that hand lives on only as a story, and the story gets better every time it’s told.
Starting today, Poker Now keeps the real thing. Highlights picks the best hands of every session you play and saves them in one place, ready to replay and share.

How it works
You don’t have to do anything different. Just play signed in.
- Play a session at a Home Game, Club or Lounge table while signed in to your Poker Now account.
- Poker Now looks at every hand you played and picks up to five highlights, ranked by how big the moment was.
- Find them in Highlights, the new item in the sidebar. A dot on it tells you when new ones are waiting.
Highlights are grouped by session. A session starts with your first hand and covers at least a full day of play, so your highlights show up about a day after you sit down. If you’re still playing, the session keeps going, and later hands count too.
What makes a highlight
Poker Now scores each hand of your session and keeps the ones that stood out, such as:
- Big pot: the biggest pots you won.
- Monster hand: the strong hands you took to showdown.
- Comeback: going from a short stack back into the game.
- Bluff: the bluffs you won and showed.
- Underdog win: winning a hand where you were behind.
- Knockout: the hand where you sent someone home.
- Won both: scooping both boards in a double-board hand.
- 7-2: winning with the worst hand in poker.
Each highlight comes with a short headline that tells the story of the hand, so you remember which one it was before you even press play.
Share the hand with your table
The best part of a great hand is rubbing it in. Every highlight you can replay, you can share: click Share, copy the link and drop it in the group chat.
Anyone with the link can watch the replay, no account needed. You decide whether your cards are shown: uncheck Show my cards if you’d rather keep them guessing.

Free and Poker Now Plus
Highlights are free for every Poker Now account.
On the free plan, you get the best highlight of every session, fully replayable and shareable. The other highlights of the session are shown blurred, and free highlights are kept for 7 days. Each one shows how many days it has left.
With Poker Now Plus, you unlock all five highlights of every session, and they’re kept forever. Your best hands from tonight will still be there next year.

FAQ
What are Poker Now Highlights?
Highlights are the best hands of each session you play on Poker Now, picked automatically. Each one can be replayed in the Hand Replayer and shared with a link.
How many highlights do I get per session?
Up to five. A quiet session may produce fewer, or none at all.
Which games are included?
Hands played signed in at Home Game, Club and Lounge tables. Multi-table tournaments and Community games are not included yet.
Why don’t I see highlights from a game I played?
Highlights only come from hands played while you were signed in to your Poker Now account. Hands played before the feature launched aren’t included, and a session’s highlights appear about a day after it starts.
How long are highlights kept?
On the free plan, 7 days. With Poker Now Plus, forever.
Can I share a highlight?
Yes. Every highlight you can replay has a Share button that creates a link anyone can open, with the option to hide your cards.
What does Poker Now Plus add to Highlights?
Poker Now Plus unlocks all highlights of every session, not just the best one, and keeps them forever instead of 7 days.
