## What is PVM?
PVM is a comprehensive management system for poker venues of any size. It handles the full lifecycle of venue operations:

- **Cash Game Operations** — Table tracking, waiting lists, game types, and session history
- **Player Accounts** — One account across all venues, memberships, credit lines, and game history
- **Dealer Coordination** — Scheduling, availability, shift swaps, and cross-venue mobility
- **Display Streaming** — Push live clocks, seatings, and info to Chromecast screens throughout the venue
- **Local Node Support** — Optional on-premise Raspberry Pi 5 proxy for zero-downtime operation during internet outages
