Hehe, sorry, I responded to the other reply at first. This is what I
am doing now, except using private windows, visible to all, since
other people should be able to see the number of chips you have.
However, the game allows up to 5 players, so this results in a fairly
cluttered desktop, since you have a main area, your hand, and up to 5
windows for other players' chips.
