The chances of them making all tables 50BB min is probably quite slim, but I'm going to go ahead and +1 that idea anyway. The money they would lose from the shortstackers leaving would be offset (if not surpassed) by the money gained from fullstackers who would switch over to PokerStars because they are shortstacker-free. The massive influx of shortstackers FullTilt and the like would experience from them fleeing from PokerStars would cause fullstackers to switch over as well.

Can someone explain to me why they think that the shortstackers would jump ship? I don't think that a site where you could still buy in to a NL game for $1 if they made all of the tables 50BB minimum is somehow going to price the fish out. The only real risk I see with it is that deeper stacks let the good players clean out the fish faster due to the fact that hands will spend more time postflop.

The thing I'd like most is for the action to be echoed in the chat box. They do that on Ongame and it rocks because I don't have to remember who raised preflop, I can just check back.

it's there, drzen... click the chips and make it so the chat show everything

Is there a way to just double click on a sitngo and automatically be registered for it? That would be nice, i'm so sick of having to click through three or four friggin screens to get into a sitngo.

right now its:

click the sng
tick the box that says x dollars will be deducted
tick the box that asks if you want to join another if this one fills
click the "ok" button when the registered! prompt comes up
and then close the tourney lobby

a bit ridiculous imo..maybe a way to turn on and off easy SNG registration, so you just double click a sng and a prompt comes up that says something like

"register? are you sure?"

[] yes [] no and that would be the end of it, and have it by default register for the next open one if that one fills. no tourney lobby or 8 things to click throgh.

it is defaulted to off, but is changeable, like sounds and whatnot. i think this would be great. it might already be there and i've played for 2 years and never seen it, but hey.

I THINK he was more so referring to people who actually have an understanding of what they're doing with 20bbs. Not people who buy-in for the minimum just b/c they can and don't know any better.

He's saying the rake lost by pro shortstackers could be made up by 100bb regulars leaving FT/others for Stars

they need to make it so u can close tables without a box coming up all the time saying to click ok on it, thats a pain in the ass when playing several tables.

You still haven't download those AHKs I linked you? Either Wickss or stars assistant does this automatically

remember it didnt work since u said my computer wasnt good enough?

I meant your computer was too old to be able to run a hud.


Here is the link to Wickss "stars hotkeys:" http://www.wickss.com/ahk/starshotke...otkeys_exe.zip

On the third tab -- "options" -- there is a checkbox next to "autoclose message boxes"

+1 for colored lobby for waitlist/seated

also auto topup doesnt work if u restart stars while still seated (bc comp crashed for instance)

1. Make it so the SNG filter can filter out non Turbo's
2. Add a net to the hand history window (not the replayer). It is easy to see the hands I won, but often I am looking for hands I lost, which are difficult pick out when playing a lot of tables (I keep the HH window open and have all tables selected)

In the filter screen, there is this nifty little text bar at the top. Type in "turbo" and BAM! no more non-turbos show up...

Sweet! Thanks, that makes things so much better.

i dunno if this has already been mentioned, but can stars please flip hole cards up when we're all in so i know wtf i'm sweating? the people at the table are going to see the hh anyway, so if you're concerned about privacy, just make it visible to the players at the table.

also please fix it so stud and stud8 players can SHUFFLE their down cards on showdown.

Please for the love of God, implement this! It makes life much less cumbersome for people who multi-table many tables. It is painful to have to constantly hover over the middle chips to see their value.

grunching the 30 page thread

Please implement a Take Seat button under the Go to Table button in the lobby. I can't tell you how many times I've opened a table and clicked on a seat only to have it occupied by the time my request hits the server. I realize that there are still going to be cases where I don't win the race but it would allow for faster seating and less clicking. It would also be nice if I could 'auto buyin'. Just set it up like auto rebuy where I can set my # of bb to buyin with. That way you click on seat open (or Take Seat) and don't have to deal with the popup.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think they already do this.

can someone please verify this? ive been told u cant on stars, only on FTP

Make it possible to access player notes from the lobby.

Implement an autoregger for sngs/multi-sng-you already have that "automatically register to other tournament if this one already is full"-i want a number field so i can say "register me for the next 10 180sngs".

Make it possible to buy chat bans with FPPs-i swear alot and get banned but i would pay you with fpps if u would unban me then-
make it for charity "cursing for africa" or something like that.

+1. I don't like hitting refresh to see my rank in the info tab when all the blind information refreshes automatically.

Another feature that is included in wickss' "stars hotkeys"

The stars software jumbles up your down cards automatically, so your opponents wont be sure of the order. I learned this the hard way while playing razz. I was berating a player for winning a hand with what appeared to be an awful starting hand/draw. He said what I saw wasnt actually the way his hand was when started. I had a few other similar instances, and actually had someone say the same thing to me eventually, so I am quite positive they jumble them up somewhat.

Man, that would be great!
