Dealt to Demon102 [Ad Qd]
Dittejoe: folds
simba128: raises $1 to $2
DOM112: raises $1 to $3
ItsADAMyay: folds
coldlake65: folds
ChaseMeNow: raises $1 to $4
Betting is capped
simba128: calls $2
DOM112: calls $1
*** FLOP *** [Kc Qh Th]
ChaseMeNow: checks
simba128: bets $1
DOM112: calls $1
ChaseMeNow: calls $1
*** TURN *** [Kc Qh Th] [Qc]
ChaseMeNow: checks
simba128: checks
DOM112: bets $2
ChaseMeNow: raises $2 to $4
simba128: calls $4
DOM112: calls $2
*** RIVER *** [Kc Qh Th Qc] [Ts]
ChaseMeNow: bets $2
simba128: raises $2 to $4
DOM112 has timed out
DOM112: folds
DOM112 is sitting out

Where the hell is my time bank stars? WTF!??!!?!!!??!?!? Can we get a timebank, it just autofolded after 15 seconds or whatever while I was think to call or raise here. Even just a 5 or 10 sec timebank would be great anything other than autofold.

Add the ability to search for a player by right clicking on their name. I hate having to pull up the 'Find A Player' window while I'm playing.

The time bank is for tough decisions, and you need to manually activate it. It doesn't kick in automatically, and it was designed this way so that players couldn't waste their entire timebank by disconnecting or timing out once, missing the first hand of a tournament because they were in the bathroom, etc.

I went to the penny limit tables and saw a flop to check it out and I didnt see the time bank pop up. IM gonna try it again and see if it pops up this time.

the timebank activates automatically as long as you have invested any money into the pot (including just your blinds I think)

there is no timebank for limit games (which was what was posted)

I think you're thinking of the disconnect protection system in 'no all-in' games, not the time bank. It will automatically give you time to reconnect - how much depends on how much you have invested in the pot. We don't have any 'no all-in' limit games at the moment so you're correct that this wouldn't happen in limit.

Haven't been through much of the thread so apologies if this has been said but I dislike the timing system, not the time bank but just your normal time to play a hand.

I greatly prefer the full tilt timing down system, as it allows me to keep exact note of how much time I have and also to avoid making timing tells e.g its easier to take the same amount of time when making a move.

I understand there are the beep warnings but would greatly prefer to see a time bar.

Cheers

I like the option at Absolute Poker that lets you tile the tables so it lines everything up making it very easy to multitable. I wish that would be an option at Stars.

If you leave the table, you are removed from the waitlist.
+1!!

Bigger font sizes for stacks. Very hard to read stack sizes when tiled 9+ tables on 1920x1200.

Better note-taking system : 1) ability to color-code players 2) ability to have notes pop-up when hovering over with mouse

Resetting timebanks for tournaments after every break.

Agree with number 1. number 2 could get anoying, possibly an optional thing?

Also a better filtering system where the user can define what game varients limits and table types to show up.

for example users wants all 2/4, 2/6, and 5/10 LHE games to show up that have more than 8 players sitting in them. Currently you can do this as you would either have to show the small stakes tab which is .5/1->3/6 or the small stakes tab which is 5/10->10/20.

dave,

i am guessing there is an autohotkey for this function? if so do you mind linking it? I do frequent the software forum once in a while, and haven't seen any kind of note-taking scripts.

Please lower the ratholing wait period to 5 minutes.

No one likes waiting.

Request for minimum buy in size at all tables to 10xbb.

Thanks!

Skipped the first 30 or so pages but very little I'd change.

-add an add to all tables at a certain limit with greater than X number of players feature would be useful (save a few seconds when starting a session)

-get rid of the 48 hour restriction on cash outs after a deposit for established players

-don't require that funds be returned to their deposit source but instead allow players to choose cash out method for established players.
