I reported him like 2 times yet and nothing was done.
I wouldn't mention him here if I didn't witness him for few months now, it's obvious he's a bot.

The history app only displays 10 hands at a time, so I had to click load more literally 50 times after a 500 hand session to see the first hands.

This is simply because we believe there are much more important things for us to use our development resources on, which would deliver more value. (For what it's worth - this is the same reason the tracking software providers dropped support for MPN cash games last year - the effort was not worth the reward).

In future, we will improve our Player History app in many ways. One possible way to improve it would be to implement similar features to tracking software (for example, more stats about your gameplay). We already have a database like this anyway, which we use for Game Integrity investigations, so we have something of a head start.
Hi im a relatively new customer, but i thought huds arent allowed right (kinda one of the main reasons i signed up to start playing with you guys and support your network ha, so im hoping huds arent allowed... and thats still the case. tracking your own play in more depth sounds cool though, like the sound of that just not the heads up displays..).
anyway just hoping you can clarify whats what as early up the thread you said there permitted so im just confused now lol.
Cheers

Don't worry, they absolutely rendered tracking in cash games not possible. He is now only trolling 2+2ers insisting on Explaining to them that HM and PT did it, for the same reasons he started these threads -To at least somewhat PR manage the direction in which they are taking the MPN.

I just don't understand why you did the changes in 2017. So much action in anonymous tables and ability to change nicknames daily had already made gathering data basically useless. You had already solved a problem and then you dropped a nuke on top of it just because you could and no one gained anything from it, MPN included.

I can also guarantee that unless you really made HEM and PT people angry behind the curtains, they would have support for your cash games running in days if you made it possible.
I somewhat got to know Microgaming's fishiest tenderest of fish. You just can't convince them to change or at least shortly forsake their Identity by playing dull anon tables, so MPN had to further protect their f... the funds in their cashiers. Anon tables have been systematically Forced, and it is one of the reasons network collapsed, together with viral chronic pretentious incompetence being payed by biggest casino games maker in the world. Also cause mediocre regs like myself picked up anon tables, but hey.

Just as removing the chat from a recreational social poker room
Alex, you Decided to first force Mac buyers to a non-functional poker software, for the same reasons those pioneering trailblazers are always at the forefront of any new shiny horizon. You have been instructed to, with this 'new software' further shrink poker vertical, keep it as optimal (very small) cross-seller. Therefore minimize the dissipation of funds from Your only Paying Customers as you again called them after PKR standstill- operators, which buy Microgaming slots. Less and less credible 'brands' left with you, or which you add without any selection, more and more dangerous for players' bankrolls. As you yourself kept insisting on explaining the Order of things just last year while you still ''communicated'' only through read only manifestos on your personal poker expert blog. Now i have no issue to 'contact my operator' it is just somewhat tiring explaining to Bianca 15 minutes each time that i do not mean Jacks or Better. And just after i got to all 3 of them, all 3 of Betsson brands, Nordicbet and Betsafe poker 'managers' got fired, and now definitely Bianca is the only one left, and i have no idea to whom she will be forwarding my messages.

In a way it was maybe even less farcical and more honest...
If your new 2+2 partners don't delete the post, however you reply please don't reply as if i am some deluded kid who you need to gently explain why his crashing video game won't have a, bet slider...

This annoying and super bad bug happens time to time.

It forces players regging late into tournament to play occasionally heads-up until 2 players (or one at this) busts. This time we did play 15 minutes together while 2 other tables played with 8 players... I believe I don't have to explain why this is super bad.



Tournament in question:



I did ask about this 32Red rep Nick earlier, but he got a response from someone @MPN network that apparently this is a feature, not a bug. Well... I think this "feature" needs to be removed ASAP as it really is an mega annoying bug and ruins player experience.

No offence but this has nothing to do with the new client. I hope they put most of the time and energy to make the new client more playable. This only affects some of the players when the bugs in the new client effects everyone.

need more info in the tourney info box, players left, avg stack etc,

just started playing on Grosvenor as GUKPT sattys on there, is there any way you can use the £110 tickets to play side events ?

loving the no hud play, used one for a while but feel as though never had enough hands on opponents for it to be any use,

I'm a rec player @ PLO 50-200 and tourneys £3 - £110 , the site is great for me, the tourneys are deep enough theres play on the final table. Theres plenty of them with less than 100 runners and they're done In 4hrs or so . Great for being up for work the next day.

The software looks great on MacBook Air and runs fine, odd disconnect but thats prob my wifi tbh.

Love seeing the whiny bum hunters I need my hud and my seat script so I can analyse my GTO etc etc........... GTFO lol play at the table you get seated at, love it, and play with no hud, I think its buzzing,

Not played on 888 for a few weeks now, stopped at PS ages ago and used to love PKR.com has similar feel to pkr, they had quite an active forum of their own is there any plans to try create a Grosvenor poker "community", with 25/25 series and GUKPT, the site looking good its all got good potential to become something diff esp for ppl like me who play the GUKPT sides, and 25/25 to meet up with other players?

I've never seen much promo for the online site in the casinos, I'm sure couple fit students in clothes a size too small could get plenty of sign ups during 25/25 weekends and GUKPT / Goliath weeks ?

Hi bgy333, Glad you like the site, we are striving to keep on improving the experience. Unfortunately you cannot use the £110 tickets for anything other than GUKPT satellites (normally a bit of value in these...). We have plans to build a community down the line. There is some promotion of online in casino, more will be coming. Good luck at the tables, hope you bink a UCOP (some nice PLO events still to play).

Hey,

Starting back up at exactly :00 is pretty gruesome when trying to add volume on MPN

Maybe someone already mentioned this but I feel like we need some kind of waiting list option/notification whenever the full table has a open seat. Tried to play some poker on new software the other night and I have to tell you that imo this system absolutely sucks. Seemed like all the tables were full and you have absolutely no idea when the seat opens. I had to try to sit over and over again before I actually managed to find a open seat. I was always transfered to open sit on a new table, I tried like at least 15 times before I finally managed to find one. Its super annoying when you are clueless about free places on other tables. I wanna focus on play and not waste my energy on finding open seat. I think that this system has to change and visible waiting list or some kind notification that seat has opened up is a must have thing.

HUDs are allowed. This is primarily because we haven't found a reliable and effective way to enforce a ban. It's not really fair to prohibit HUDs, but then not enforce that rule.

We are making a number of improvements to late registration soon, one of them is to fix this issue.

Overall, players will be moved around a little more often during the late registration period, because we will balance tables and open new tables more often. The upside of this is that you will not remain seated at a table which has many fewer players than the rest of the tournament.

I suspect that what they actually do is wait until all hands have finished before going on break, whereas we simply start the 5 minute break at :55 without waiting for all hands to finish. Does that sound about right?

I will look into this improvement and add it to our backlog, thanks for the suggestion.

If you're sat on an empty table, it means that there are no seats available that you're eligible to sit in.

If we added an option to wait for a seat at an existing table, rather than starting a new table, would that solve the problem for you? i.e. you would click 'Play', but if no seat was available, we'd put you on a waiting list until one became available instead of opening a new table.

Or am I misunderstanding you?

Please could you:

1. Ensure that your operating system is up to date with any available updates? (Go to App Store > Software Update).

2. If you still experience the issue, contact RedStar Poker providing as much detail as possible about your setup (machine, internet connection type etc) and we will work with them to resolve this problem for you.

Best situtation would be if there are no available seats you could choose if you want to open a new empty table and wait for others or join a waiting list. Like this with the old client. Atleast I don't want to play hu if I have several other tables open and this works just fine.

I know there were no open seats.
Look. I`m absolutely fine with starting one new table but I still want to get a seat on other tables as well. I`m a 6-max player not a HU player. Regularly I play around 6-8 tables I don`t want to open sit on all the new tables I want to get a seat on already existing tables. Thats where the problem starts for me. Players don`t get any information when the seat opens on full tables.
I think you need to add an option to wait for a seat on existing tables, like you have with old client (Seat Finder) or something similar to that.

Yes. That would absolutely solve the problem.

Something like that.

Player clicks `Play`.
System: There are currently no seats available.
Would you like to start a new table? YES or NO
Would you like to join a waiting list at this type of table? YES or NO
Minimum seated players (OPTION)
When the seat is found then the player is automatically transfered to the table.

Hi everyone,

We're getting close to the release of v38 of the new software. v38 consists exclusively of new features and changes that have been requested by players.

A popular request was to make the table easier to follow at smaller table sizes. There are many changes in v38 that make the table easier to use, and I'd like to get your feedback on two of them in particular:

Increased Button Prominence

A popular request was to make the button position more prominent.

Here's what it looks like now (v37.3):



Here's what it looks like in v38:



While developing the feature, we also thought it might be useful to highlight the small blind and big blind positions (especially in tournaments, when due to players busting and moving tables, the blinds may not be in their usual position). However, after play testing, I'm not so sure if this information is useful, especially post-flop.

Here's what it looks like:





What do you think - is this useful?

Enter to Bet

In v38, we put the cursor in the bet box automatically and you can press enter to bet or raise. So if you want to raise to 60, you just type 60 and press enter.

The current behaviour is that if you don't type anything, but hit enter on the active table, it will min bet (if checked to you) or min raise (if there is a bet).

I can see the potential for this to cause people to bet / raise by accident. And how often do players actually want to min bet or min raise? So I am leaning towards changing this.

What do you think, is it useful or harmful?

Btn more visible seems fine sb/bb pretty useles but I'm playing just cash. And as you can see in that pic the chip is waaaaaaay too big compared to the text. That you need to fix rather sooner than later. If anything makes it hard to play multible tables is that. Enter and bet so in the future you need to type something before you can bet with enter? Or click the betslider? Seems fine. Didn't even know you might minbet with enter.

And there is one annoying feature allso. When a player bets you can't see how much the pot was before that. It just shows the ammount after the bet so you don't know if the bet was 1/3 pot or 3x the pot. Atleast I think it was like that.

There are indeed some mods for the new prima client, including a stars clone at http://www.pokertablethemes.eu (obv there are several for the old client too, but they were around for years).

So with these mods + MPN tools hopefully working with prima client in the nearer future, MPN prolly would be playable again (at least for me).
