Development is still plugging along. It's a nights and weekends thing right now while I continue work on my Ph.D, but I have in no way abandoned the project. The major slow down has been the Pokerstars client - I'm having to solve a series of technical challenges to get this to work properly, and the latest one is giving me some headaches, but I'm beating it with a stick as we speak.

I can't guarantee this, but I'm hoping to be ready to call for beta testers somewhere near the end of June or first week of July.

Thank You!

PM me in the coming weeks if you want a beta tester.

Would gladly pay for this as well, PM if you need beta tester

good work mate.
what about setting up a twitter page for updates?

would pay for this as well ofc. let me know if u need me for beta-testing it.

Okay, so just a little while after I wrote this, I was informed that a close family member was gravely ill, and I found myself heading for the airport that afternoon; life has gotten extremely unpredictable in the last couple of weeks, but I'm managing to scrape out some time to work on the program now.

Thanks for the suggestion, Jesse! I decided that a twitter account would be a good idea, and I've set up an account at twitter as http://twitter.com/fullyfunc (I'll be releasing this under the company name of Fully Functional Software). Feel free to follow me, and I'll post regular updates there for anyone who is interested; a website will follow once I've reached the beta-testing stage.

i would pay 20$ for sth. that does similar like betpot...

Details please. Thanks.

I wouldn't want it like others unless HEM came out for mac. atm I run windoze just to play poker through parallels. it works well fwiw but i'd love to not have to.

Anyone who's been following this thread, I've made an announcement about the program in a new thread here.

Any progress in this topic? Really need a betpot for Mac as Pokercopilot is now a very good HM/PT replace

DonMB,

Actually, BlazingStars is still under development (actually, quite vigorous development in the past month or so, since I open sourced the program). You can find the latest versions and info at our Google Code page, http://blazingstars.googlecode.com, or at my website http://fullyfunctionalsoftware.com.

For reference, here's some recent developments:

Recent updates include:

Auto detection of the current PokerStars theme (contributed by Steve McLeod, of the great tracking software Poker Copilot at http://pokercopilot.com).
Speech recognition: BlazingStars can now perform hotkey presses by voice command.
Support for the Italian PokerStars client.
Bug fixes, UI tweaks, and performance enhancements.
Coloured overlay on the active window.
Fixed pre-flop raise amounts.

Work in progress:

Improved screen scraping for the pot-sized betting code.
PFR + X per limper.
Support for more themes.
Auto time bank feature.

AUTOCLOSE ''YOU FINISHED XTH POSTING''
AUTOCLOSE THAT TABLE AFTER 1 SEC

PLZ

Cycle to first table

!

Any chance you'd be willing to do the same for the Merge network? Maybe at least feeling out if there is enough interest...I'd certainly be willing to pay.

This is FYI only:

Of course you could be lucky and he still get's informed about new posts in his thread, but with the last login date over a year ago it would be very unusual.
