table ninja has/had this feature (for FTP and Stars), and it was amazingly helpful for multitabling.

and mergekeys can't do it.

thanks!

I am doubtful that Merge would include something like this, but I will definitely pass along the suggestion.

okay, thanks Ryan.

i almost feel like merge is anti-grinder. people have been complaining about the SNG popups (when a new game starts) since at least right after black friday (more than a year ago). this slows down the games, breaks my concentration like a hundred times a day and reduces the number of tables grinders can handle.

and a fold hotkey is something else that could speed up the games, reduce repetitive stress pain, and increase the number of tables we can handle and allow for longer sessions too.

other sites have had fold hotkeys for a long time. for example, pokerroom.com had it as far back as 2003, although i admit full tilt never had it, so maybe there is something the sites don't like about it. full tilt also never had the all-in button like merge does, which is a VERY nice feature of the merge software.

anyway, thanks again. i don't blame you personally.

another thing that baffles me is why poker sites don't offer an "unregister all" feature for SNGs and MTTs. we are forced to manually unregister from every SNG that hasn't yet started if we want to end a session. the tribeca network had this feature at least since 2006. i don't know if they still do.

maybe the sites think that they are better off letting us sometimes have to play games we can't get unregistered from in time. but i actually end up playing fewer games because of this, since i have to always be babysitting the lobby.

the way it is, i have to be careful not register for too many games, and this causes me to sometimes miss games i would have played. since i play four different stakes levels at the same time (with a preference toward the higher stakes in my range), i would prefer to register for a few SNGs at each level, then if my total number of games got close to the maximum i could handle, i could do the "unregister all" until things died down.

also, there have been many times when the software starts acting weird, lagging, my internet connection becomes intermittent or whatever, and i would give anything to be able to "unregister all". but sometimes i end up having restart the client and when i come back i am in crisis mode and with more new games to deal with.

and please allow us the option to be auto-unregged from games that haven't yet started in cases where we lose our connection, since we can't unreg manually during the ordeal.

thanks!

thanks!

I have personally requested this feature with Merge already. I also think its a great idea. Not sure if it will ever be included in the future or not, but I have requested it.

Thanks for making it nearly impossible to look for a new table when my current table breaks down. The blue chip icon indicating a table I'm playing at does not work correctly. Looking through the lobby while 12 tabling trying to find a new table is now a tedious task because I can't differentiate which tables I'm at.

YOU GUYS HAD IT WORKING BEFORE THIS LAST UPDATE. PLEASE FIX IT.

Also, fix the damn HH replayer already. Even Bugsy's Room had a damn replayer that worked.

I have raised these issues with Merge again.

Haven't looked through the thread to see if it was suggested but definitely a link in the satellite lobbies to what tournament you are trying to win a seat for would be nice.

[TomoDaK]

^holy crap yes I cannot believe I forgot to mention that. Sats would get so much more action!!

in big bet games, if the sizing is big enough, the player boxes in the upper row of seats get covered up by the chips. this can make it impossible to tell how many chips someone has left; you just can't see the number. it seems to happen when the smallest chips are used, for example, single cents at a 1/2 table.

making the 1c chips a lot smaller (or whatever denomination it is that causes it to stack so high) would be a lot helpful. another idea might be to make the chips show some transparency upon entering the player's box. alternatively you could make it so those smaller chips stack adjacent to the bigger chips, and not right on top.

i hope you guys can get this changed. i realize that there is a setting to turn multi-stack chips off but that doesn't fix the actual problem. as an online poker player there is a huge amount to be said for having instant visual cues (big stacks indicating a raise) because it helps you make decisions as fast as possible.

Im pretty sure this has been passed along, but it cant hurt to reiterate it to the guys at Merge.

simple fix is: Settings > Display Settings > Display Multi-Stack Chips = never

[The Apex]

Please get rid of the countdown pop-up when moving tables in MTT's. It would be better if that table didn't change size/move around by itself. Sorry if this was already mentioned.

Biggest issue I've had is that when someone makes a strange bet but doesn't go allin, the tower of chips covers up their remaining stack size. There's been a time where a player bets that way, and I don't know if they got 1 chip behind them or 50k more chips behind them. Obviously this effects decision making.

Please fix, thank you!
