The Pot - Stake your claim

The Pot is in your group chat now. Drop a claim straight into iMessage and everyone picks a side and stakes without ever leaving the thread.

The Pot is where your friend group settles it — for real, but not for real money.

Create a group, invite your friends, and put coins on anything: who's paying for dinner, who wins the argument, whether TP goes broke this week. Everyone starts with the same stack. What you do with it is the whole game.

STRAIGHT INTO THE GROUP CHAT The Pot lives in iMessage. Open any group chat, tap The Pot in the apps drawer, and drop a claim straight into the thread — everyone picks a side and stakes without leaving the conversation, and the bubble updates in place as the pot grows. Challenge someone 1v1 for any stake, post a real game, or set your own deadline. Send a claim anywhere else and the link unfurls into the full card — title, sides, live pot. When it settles, the card shows the winner and the final pot, so you can flex the result right back into the chat.

CLAIM ANYTHING Post a claim, pick sides, and let the group back one. Up to eight options when it's not a yes-or-no — every option shows its pool, and the losing pools pay whoever called it. Challenge someone 1v1 when it's personal. Vote on outcomes, then talk your trash in the comments — every claim has a thread.

THE BOOK Real games, real lines. Back your team against the house with live moneylines, spreads, and totals — or stack picks into a parlay and let it ride. The group's House Pot books every claim.

FANTASY LEAGUES Link your Sleeper account and stake your real fantasy matchups. Back yourself against the house on moneylines, spreads, and totals priced from live projections, parlay your rival's matchup with real games, or post the week's showdown straight to the pot. Lines open the week before kickoff — once lineups are set, the book is open.

DUTY FREE Blackjack, Roulette, Slots, and Ride the Bus, solo or at a shared table with your group live. Texas Hold'em with real seats, real reads, and your actual friends bluffing you.

SEASONS Every season ends with a reckoning: awards for the sharpest, streakiest, and most degenerate players — and a relegation shake-up that skims the rich and lifts the broke, so every season starts as a real race. Chase MVP: the biggest gain across every way to play.

KEEP RECEIPTS Leaderboards for every bragging right — richest, most accurate, hottest streak, biggest earner, high roller, Patron of the pot, and the Hall of Shame for whoever's deepest in debt. A live activity feed shows every claim, win, and bad decision as it happens.

NO REAL MONEY. EVER. Coins are virtual, can't be bought, and can't be cashed out. No purchases, no payouts, no gambling — just a friend group, a shared economy, and bragging rights that carry.

Round up your group. Somebody's about to go broke.
