Global Poker,

On the poker table software add a mouse wheel function where you scroll up and your bet is increased by 1 big blind per click, and decreased 1 BB scrolling it backwards each click.

Plz Plz Plz do this. I made a long post in this thread about changes that should be made. If i were to rerank the list, this would be at the very top. Your bet slider is extremely frustrating to deal with. I guarantee that this would be a welcome addition for all players on your site.

+1 to all of this! It would make it much easier for me to play more tables at a higher roi! Unfortunately I think they know this, along with the tiling interface and they're the way they are for a reason and aren't changing.

clicking the slider and even some of the btns with 6+ tables tiled and not timing out requires extreme mouse precision usage lol, no matter the size or resolution of ones monitor

Close the table and reopen and your buttons return. Shouldn't cause losing any pots as you can close and reopen a table within 5 seconds.

I'm telling him how to fix the issue so he doesn't lose hundreds in a pot. Didn't say you should NEED to do this. Caps locking words is cool too. Going to start implementing it to make my point.

Any chance of this ever being fixed, or at least acknowledged? Or should I just accept that auto top up will always have a random 1-3 hand lag?

Please be aware though that it isn't necessarily a quick thing to make changes like this.

As has been mentioned previously not everything is in our control but we are working towards increasing the number of things we have control over.

Secondly we have to balance the use of resources we have with the importance of different changes. We have a pretty significant lag/disconnect issue over the past couple of weeks so as a company we decided that it was definitely better to focus on fixing that as opposed to aesthetic/product changes.

I cannot commit to every single suggestion being implemented but what I can commit to is the fact that they are all read, all discussed and all considered by the team here.

Please do keep them coming and thank you all for your support of Global Poker!
I've mentioned this before, but some SNG improvements would be nice (and easy to implement):
  • Bigger buyins - $100+
  • Rake adjustments across the board
Traffic can definitely sustain some action at higher stakes so it would be nice to see something added above $55s. If you do decide to add higher games, please consider lowering the rake as well.

Auto top-up below 100bb please.

Hey zikzak,

We have noted this and we are looking into it.

We are looking into some higher SNGs shortly.

The button placement when going from 3 handed to heads up is still not fixed. This is poker 101 and is costing bad hands in an already high rake short handed environment. This should have been fixed when the software was first developed.
09-28-2017 , 07:45 PM
higher sng's are the first thing in this thread you respond to?! wow, cmon, that's quite sick. altho I don't play shorthanded, what they are talking about effects everyone, due to less tables starting. even if you have no plans of changing, YOU NEED TO RESPOND TO SHORTHANDED RAKE COMPLAINTS.

you should also respond to the myriad of software problems that aren't getting attention. you should be looking in this thread before any other one when you login.

Take a chill pill man.

Sooooo......y'all ready to cut that rake yet....orrr?????

I mean, I know the MTT players are loving that tournament series, but a little somethin somethin for us cash game players would be nice.
09-29-2017 , 11:57 AM
Cutting rake to online industry standard of 5% up to $3 is good for the games. Also, cutting rake in short-handed environment is a must.

One feature I think people would love is to be able to create a personal profile that people could view. Maybe, hometown, bio, pic, social media, etc.
09-29-2017 , 12:14 PM
The high short-handed rake costs them money. Players consistently have to let tables die because of it.
09-29-2017 , 01:14 PM
2 people sit out and the table surely breaks. Getting annoying at this point.
09-29-2017 , 02:23 PM
Every single feature they fix or implement makes it more likely other regs will join. Don't ruin a good thing for convenience. The sole complaints you're begging to fix and features added are exactly the reasons more regs don't play at the moment. Build and fix at your own risk.

if this is actually true, then I would agree with it I guess. I'm not sure if this is or is not true, however. this is (apparently) LEGAL online poker, available in the usa. admittedly, the poker boom is old news, but I know tons of rec players who would play on a legal poker site if they new about it. I think the main thing that will hold back global is the general public's not understanding that $weeps cash is just cash. today's 10 second attention spans don't lend themselves to people grasping even elementary concepts, which this is of course. this isn't a bash on global's marketing either. they make it probably as easy as they can, within the law, to understand.

bottom line: there are about 10 or so main issues that I think everyone would agree should be fixed. buttons covering other buttons or numbers just isn't acceptable. functions not working as intended should be fixed. I don't think this will change the player mix at all.
09-29-2017 , 02:48 PM
I don't think I've seen this mentioned: in tournaments, when there are antes, the pot size covers up the timer showing time until next blind level.

As more people hear about GP, more regs join. It is slowly becoming just another poker site. Might as well have nice software to play on.

What are the qualifications to be considered a "reg"? Or better yet, what is a reg?
