Dealer Rotation Tracker
Use this alongside any of the score trackers above. Pick a random first dealer once, then tap "Next Hand" after each hand is dealt — the highlighted player deals next. Everything runs in your browser — nothing you type is sent anywhere.
How Dealer Rotation Works
Deal passes to the left
In most card games (Pinochle, Hand and Foot, Hollywood Gin, and the games on this site), the deal rotates clockwise: after each hand, the player to the current dealer's left deals next. This tracker assumes that order — just arrange "Seat 1, Seat 2, ..." in clockwise seating order around your table.

Picking the first dealer
Most tables pick the first dealer randomly (high card, or just by agreement) and then follow the rotation from there. Use "Pick Random First Dealer" for a fair, no-argument starting point.

House variants
A few games or house rules rotate counter-clockwise, or have the winner of the previous hand deal next instead of a fixed rotation. If your table uses one of those, just tap "Next Hand" out of seat order, or skip a seat manually — the tracker only tracks whose turn it is, not the direction rule itself.
