This is actually not the case (it's true of some other sites, but not PokerStars). The cards as seen at showdown are in the same order as they were dealt.

We have a project in the works to allow shuffling of the hole cards but, sadly, it's such a rare request that it's unlikely to get priority any time soon.

Really? Maybe I am confused and was actually playing Razz on FTP back then. This may be the case, actually. I was probably playing Razz on FTP, after getting moved there from Doyles. I thought it would be similar to Badugi, and boy was I wrong.

Also, Please create some kind of color coding system that can be seen from the lobbies similar to FTP.

It is hard trying to table select on Poker Stars because I cant remember all the names and cannot access notes while registering.
I wanted to add to this:

Make the color coded system also be able to be seen at the tables, so you can mark each player with different colors.(if u choose)

Hello PokerStars

1) Add some way for tournament players to auto addon
2) When I am adding tables via wait list, if I click on a table I am already sitting on, no button should pop up. Right now the status quo is a button saying "Join wait list" but when clicking on it I get directed to the table I'm sitting at. Thats suboptimal. There should be no button to click when Im sitting at the table.
3) There should be an option to remove oneself from all current waiting lists, either in options toolbar or as an option when the "table is open, do u want seat?" window pops up

+1

Its a damned disaster when when I accidentally maximize a table. The whole client lags bad when changing table sizes.

I feel like this is an urgent and simple request:

There is a problem with SNGs not opening with the latest update. There is a thread in STTF about it. I feel like Stars needs to address this and solve the root problem, but in the meantime... Please add a total number to the registered in tournaments link in the menu. Currently, you click on it and it gives you a list of tourneys you are in. If we could see a number in addition to the list, we wouldn't have to count them every time. When I am 20-tabling, I would like to be able to look and see that I have 21 Stars windows open (including the lobby) and then look at a number (preferably in the lobby) of tournaments I am registered in and make sure they match. It's hard to stop and count through a list of 20 tournaments to make sure the number matches, and it's easy to miscount anyway. All we need is a notation that says "You are currently registered in 20 tournaments (20 running.)" or something like that. Thank you.

Combined timer for multi-table players. Where timers at each table are currently gauged individually, let a multi-tabler's timer always be the lowest value of any of his tables, when he activates the time bank at any table. This would prevent their ability to simultaneously and repeatedly delay tables because they are on more tables than they can handle.

I like that is doesnt because when I play 7 card games its 1/2 and under and most of the players dont pay attention to thing, but I can get a bigger edge by seeing their starting hands at showdowns

So please dont shuffle the hole cards

Why would Stars want to make it harder on the players contributing the most rake?

if they are slowing it up enough, it would affect stars' bottom line

Not make it harder, but when a player is slowing down the game they shouldn't get the benefit of independent timers on each table, using a timer at one table should reduce the time they have in their bank at others.

I am not sure if this is the right thread for this but i have a question about the differences between a Mac and a PC as far as what is available to be played. When I am logged on my Mac I can log into .10 360 man tournaments (Sit & Go, Multitable, micro) but when I am logged into my PC these .10 SNG's do not exist. Any ideas?

Your PC probably has a filter set that doesn't show them.

when i play on full tilt and its my option the table pops in front of my interenet display and everything

On stars if im looking at internet the table jumps to the front of the other tables but not my internet.

Is there a way to make it like full tilt?

Please update the time bank feature to show you when you no longer have a time bank available on a specific table. You could have the timer say in red "TIME BANK EXPIRED" instead of how it is now w/ 1 sec on it and it autofolds if u take a second before acting. This way we can decide instantly what to do & have been fairly warned that we are out of time.


Example:

Auto folded my nut top set of QQ's yesterday 70bb pot I lost + we were 150bb deep so who knows what villain does. Just another day. Literally took 1.5 seconds deciding what to bet. If I knew I had no time bank left I would have just bet anything instantly, but I didn't know I was out of time (unfair imo).


It tilts the #*$% out of me because I would have won (usually a large pot) and lost due to no real fault of my own, since I think a time warning is standard in poker. You get a time warning everywhere else conceivable in poker, why not here? Please help.


If you ever have lost $ due to this and when it happened you thought "This is F'n bulls*** PS" and were fuming mad at Stars (who you normally love) when it happened then please respond to this, discuss this, or at least +1 this.

Autofold (instead of check) should go. Seriously.
