I am glad they finally have a hand replayer, I will have to check it out more. But, from what I have seen of it, it would be much better if it placed you in your preferred seat, so the players match the table as you are looking at it.
...and that

The space at the top of the HORSE and HOSE games which explain what HORSE and HOSE are is completely useless. Please take it out or at the very least make it a box which can be closed for the 99.8% who already know what the games are.

Screen space is at a premium. Please be judicious in its use.

The pro sit out artists are getting on my nerves. How about a weekly time bank of say 200 sit out table hours. Not enough? These people really do need to sit on 24 tables several hours every day you say? Fine, how about 500 hours. The first person to hit the mark gets banned for life.

Or something

Ditto this
There are people who struggle to play 1 table who are multi-tabling and slowing the games down intolerably. They almost time out every hand.I think after this happens twice they should be autofolded as soon as the timer starts....

It's about time they're going to add this for the mixed games (see circled). Surprised it took so long (from the Test site)

millionthing color coded lobby for at a table, on the waitlist, and nothing, maybe even one for sitting out.

Or a hide feature for tables you join the waitlist for, moved to a different tab.

Go to 'View' > 'Table Themes' in the main lobby. All of our table themes have centred seating for nine-handed tables and you can choose where to sit at every type of table using 'Options' > 'Preferred Seat'.

We have some themes with a racetrack layout (such as the new Black Theme) and some themes with the more traditional circular layout (such as the Classic theme).

Also, this isn't exactly a software question, but what is the ratio of 50BB tables to normal tables, and is there any chance of this increasing?
I originally designed the Hold'em RG Filter with NL/PL checkboxes but was overruled - I'll bring it up again though. I agree that 50BB tables should be on it also.

There is no limit on the number of either type of table, so if one type is more popular than the other it's simply players voting with their feet.

There is something in the works that will colour-code tables that you're already sitting at (as well as those that you're on the waiting list for). We don't have anything that can accomplish this at present, however.

This is on the list too.

I like the shortcut and will bring it up, but FYI you can change the table theme for just one of your tables if you want to. The easiest way to do it is to open a table, click the layout button (next to the dealer tray at the top), and select 'Table Themes'. When you choose a theme, you'll get the option to 'Apply theme to the current table only'.

Pretty annoying. What I've been doing lately is killing the PokerStars process in Windows Task Manager (doesn't make me leave my tables this way) and then relaunching PokerStars, which unchecks the "auto-post blinds" check box on all my tables, and is a little faster than me going through and doing them all manually. If something could be done about this though, that'd be great. It's quite annoying when I forget to uncheck them before I return from sitting out and end up losing money from posting with rag hands.
Anyone else have this problem? :/

Not exactly software related, but why isn't PNL in the FPP store?

what about KO tournaments? That would be neat.
[PokerStars] Software Improvement Thread Quote

In no particular order, I would like PS to implement these things to truly make it number 1!

1. RAKEBACK IN CASH (not in FPP, books, etc... we want the money as at least an option! PLUS ++ Beat FTP's 27% rakeback)

2. COLOUR CODED NOTES FEATURE (same as FTP)

3. MORE DECK COLOURS ON THE NEW THEME (ATM they're all a variation of black/grey/dark, try to get an introduction of yellow, red, green and orange as that would be good to really highlight the number of players left in the hand and would make it easier for Multi-tabling)

4. MORE DECK THEMES (More than the three decks we have available now, try looking at Tiltbuster.com for ideas and implement them asap!)

5. ALLOW MAESTRO WITHDRAWLS ABOVE DEPOSIT VALUE (at the moment you allow withdrawls back to Maestro cards, but only up to the limit deposited.. scrap this feature so that we can get all of our money into our bank accounts via maestro.)

6. KO tournaments as on FTP

7. 6max 4 table deep stack tournaments (the same as featured on Ladbrokes, 4 short handed tables with 5000 starting chips and top 4 paid)

Thanks and keep up the good work!

Getting your rakeback in money is an option.
And I'm getting more than double in rakeback this year on Stars than I would get at 27% on FT.
Regardless, that's not a software feature anyway. Just pointing out that you can get cash and that for certain players the Stars rakeback is quite high.

Agree with the rakeback thing. I like the current setup. It is basically same as cash.

What I'm most interested in is:

1. Auto top-off/reload for big bet games.
2. Color coded lobby.

yeah but for a silverstar/goldstar VIP player like myself, Rakeback at fulltilt is better. (which I don't have on my account, unfortunately) So having an option like this on PS would be great.

This.

This is solved in two ways: filter that doesn't show tables you're on. Color coding tables you're on.

Hope to see either (or both) soon!

This would be great if there was a button to sit out next big blind for all tables.
Pain in the ass playing 20 tables and you need to take a piss. Half the ****ing tables are high speed and half are normal. I always end up leaving one checked when it should be unchecked or whatever.

An auto reload would be great as well.
