It is a problem caused by Poker Shortcuts' Table2 tab resizing feature and can be recreated the way I described it (I just tried it again with only 5 tables and it happened. Just open Stars first then Poker Shortcuts and use "Table2" resizing)

I was finally able to duplicate what you are seeing after trying many things. And it does looks like "flashing". It seems to only happen at some table sizes. I don't know what is causing it yet, but I'm working on it.

thanks for your persistence and testing!

I believe I have solved the mystery. You must have been using very small tables on Poker Stars (e.g. 480 width). The minimum size that PS allows is 485 on my system. If the Table2 setting for a table is smaller than what PS allows, the Shortcuts still tries to make the table smaller every 2-3 seconds, which causes the flicker you see. If you just make your table size 485 or larger, then you shouldn't see the problem (you might have to make it slightly larger if you have different border sizes from mine, but the min size is somewhere around 485).

I had been using 527 width
(Plus a saved layout with tables at 527 width. Not sure if that plays a role at all though. I think it was the same when I hadn't loaded the layout)

Good find nonetheless!

Hi,

feature question: is it possible to define PF bet amounts dependant on position in Shortcuts? Like 4xUTG, 3.5xMP, 3xCO, 2.5xBU? Would be really useful.

Great program, thanks!

'Activate Next Table in Stack' doesn't work for me. I've tried it on FT & PS and nothing happens. My hotkey is not bind to any other action, I have checked that. 'Activate Bottom Table in Stack' works fine.

Sorry PSC users... I've been swamped. I hope to get caught up again with the posts in this forum in the next 24 hours.

hi nano,

just want to say how much i love this program. i play up to 12 tables with my Logitech controller (with the move to most urgent table mode), and it works so well. i literally only need to press on button (no movement of wrist) unless i see a flop etc. it has made playing much easier. thanks for this

Yes, I can confirm I have PSTableHyperSimple entered in the Set up tab on Pokershortcuts.

Any other ideas I can try to get get the bet sizing working?

I just made a major update to the Poker Shortcuts Trouble Shooting page with all that I currently know about problem solving tips for PSC.

nano,

is it possible to have osd 5 to display at all times (without having to mouse-over it)...then if you wanna refresh the info on another player just mouse-over it.

also regard osd5, if i mouse-over a player it will show the correct BB and M numbers but like 1sec later it will become "0.0 BB M: 0.0"...what gives?

A few comments/questions.

There seems to be some lag between mouse-over table and when commands can be input. I have hot-keyed right mouse button to fold. If I right click within half a second of mousing over a table, it does not register. Table Ninja works perfectly here, as does a custom script I have for FTP. I do have 'auto-activate the table which mouse is over' selected. Oh, and I changed process priority to high for shortcuts.

Is there a way to automatically take a seat when you open a table on Stars?

Is there a way to automatically handle buyin on Pokerstars? This works on FT, but I can't make it buyin for me on Stars.

Oh, and you should make a table opener that works on both sites.

Poker Shortcuts is still in beta test, and is not for sale yet (I'm hoping to release it from Beta by June 15th)... You can download a trial version on our website. If you own our FT Shortcuts program, you can get a free code to unlock the beta version. Details on website here:

A couple of people have mentioned the slowness issue that you are seeing. I'm not able to duplicate, as it works instantly here. I would like to set up a TeamViewer session with someone that is having this issue, so that I can troubleshoot it. If you are interested, please pm or email me, and hopefully we could get it resolved quickly.

I have it on the todo list to have the software auto take a seat.

The buyin should work for you automatically on stars too. Just set up the Auto-rebuy options in the Lobby...options menu...Auto-Rebuy. Then, as you probably know, on the Dialogs tab in Shortcuts... check "Auto Click on Ok in the get chips dialog box"

Poker Stars works very differently, and won't be able to do a Table Opener software for Stars.

Thanks for letting me know about these two items. I was able to duplicate the problem here. I plan to have these 2 items fixed in the next release (probably on Monday).

I will add your OSD5 feature suggestion to the wish list. Thanks!

Regarding the OSD5 stopping after a second... Is the Stars tooltip popping over the stack size after a second (it shows the player's name a location)? If so, you may have to click the mouse in the player's box to prevent that tooltip from popping up and covering the stack digits.

I just tried your table size of 1000, and I was able to duplicate the problem. Try reducing your table size to below 800 pixels wide and try that. I will fix the problem fix the larger table sizes in next release.

Sorry, not possible with Shortcuts. Shortcuts does not know the hero's position at the table. Besides, I think the poker sites might frown at it, as it may be getting to close to being a "bot".

I usually set up a standard bet size for my button bet, and then use the mouse wheel to adjust slightly for position (inc/dec tab for mouse wheel adjustment).

I have that fear too and I hope it doesn't come out too soon. I have worked on it, and I have some features working with it. As soon as I get PSC out of beta, it will be the #1 priority.

It turns out that the existing FT Shortcuts would never have worked with the new FT Beta (with any reasonable amount of changes)... Their new beta is radically different, even though it doesn't look like it graphically. To make Poker Shortcuts work with Stars I completely re-wrote FT Shortcuts, and it's fortunate that I started the project back last December, else it would have taken a number of months for me to make the changes to make FT Shortcuts compatible with their beta. With Poker Shortcuts, it is a much easier modification.

For me personally, a perfect setup would be that it opens the info tab and auto refreshes intermittently on all visible tables (would be 4 for me since I stack) if I click on Chat, however, it should override the "auto open info tab" on that table until I manually click on the Info tab on that table.

That sounds like it's a bit of work so if it takes too much time away from things that need your immediate attention you could just do something like this for now:

[x] Auto refresh Info tab on all visible tables
[x] Auto open Info tab on all visible tables
Thanks for your additional thoughts on this. I have it high on the wish list.
