How to Use a HUD on ClubGG (2026 Guide)

ClubGG is one of the most popular club-based poker apps in the US, but it has a catch that every serious grinder runs into: there's no built-in HUD, and it doesn't hand you a hand-history file to import. If you've come from PokerStars or GGPoker, that feels like flying blind.

The good news: you can run a full heads-up display on ClubGG. This guide walks through how it works and how to set it up in a few minutes.

Why ClubGG has no HUD by default

Most online poker sites write your hand histories to a folder that trackers like DriveHUD, Hold'em Manager, and PokerTracker read. ClubGG doesn't do that. The hands live inside the app and never touch your disk in a format a tracker understands. That's why simply "pointing DriveHUD at ClubGG" does nothing.

To get a HUD, you need something in the middle that reads each hand as you play it and rebuilds it into a standard hand history your tracker can import. That's exactly what a hand converter does.

What you need

• DriveHUD 2 — the tracker and HUD software.
• ClubGG desktop — the Windows client (not the mobile app).
• A hand converter for ClubGG — the bridge between the two.

American Hand Converter is a converter built specifically for ClubGG (and ClubWPT Gold). It captures hands live and feeds them to DriveHUD in real time.

Step-by-step setup

1. Install DriveHUD 2 and make sure it opens normally.
2. Install the hand converter and run it as administrator (it needs elevated rights to attach to the ClubGG client).
3. Open the converter, tick "ClubGG", and press Start. It finds the ClubGG client and attaches its capture.
4. Sit down at a table. As each hand finishes, it's converted and pushed to DriveHUD, and the HUD attaches to your table window automatically.

That's it. No exporting, no importing, no copy-pasting hand histories.

What you'll see

Once it's running, every opponent gets a HUD box showing the core stats — VPIP, PFR, aggression, 3-bet, and more — built from the hands you've played against them. Because players are tracked under their real ClubGG usernames, your sample and notes on a regular keep growing across sessions instead of resetting.

Common issues

• "DriveHUD sees nothing." DriveHUD alone can't read ClubGG — you need the converter running. Start the converter first, then play.
• "The HUD is on the wrong window." Modern converters match the table by its window title and place the HUD automatically, even when multi-tabling.
• "It won't attach." Make sure both the converter and ClubGG are allowed through your antivirus, and that the converter is running as administrator.

Is running a HUD on ClubGG allowed?

Tracking tools and HUDs are restricted by some operators' terms of service. Before you use any HUD, confirm your use complies with ClubGG's current terms, and only track games you personally play. That's on you as the player.

Bottom line

ClubGG doesn't give you a HUD, but a dedicated hand converter does. Set it up once and you'll have the same edge — reads on regs, position-aware stats, and a live overlay — that players on the big sites take for granted.
