If I accidently hit the fold button when I want to bet, I want to be able to exit the pop up window and bet. Its not a huge deal but the situation has come up a few times recently.

So people have to get out of bed especially to sit out, and then go back to bed for an hour before getting up to play? A lot of people who buy in a day in advance or longer won't if they risk getting their buy in confiscated for not reporting to duty during level 1. This would shrink the tourneys and they'd have to bring guarantees back down, which would shrink the tourneys. Not gonna happen. Also five people sitting out is easier than them only playing JJ+/AK. If you get crushed under those conditions, you need to rethink your strategy.

Seeing as how there is at most only two games of $50 NL 2-7 single draw lowball going on the entire website, why can't they add lower micro levels so some people could play for less? It's been month now and there is no traffic.

If you are multitabling and you REQUEST time one table, then it indicates that u are busy and so other tables should AUTOMATICALLY request time instead of time-out fold.

It's good to players who prefer with cascaded tables.

Also if some table time-outs and "I am back" button appear thne please don't popup this table before u are finished action another table.

It serious problem because sometimes I have very hard but very important decision and I need full concentration. But I lose my concentration if timed out tables popping up.

They were on some days stopping play money action during the week but I saw tons of games going today so they are still running them I guess.

We've stopped doing that ever since we deployed the new upgrades. As far as I'm aware, there were no major site-wide issues yesterday and we were running with plenty of capacity to spare. It may be that there's something I don't know about, or it could be that there were simply some regional internet issues that were unrelated to PokerStars. A good place to check in these situations is:

Yes, please stop popping the table to the front when it times out. The way it is right now, I end up getting a cascade of time outs as I hunt for tables in my stack, and others keep popping up.

This isnt a huge deal and is only mildly annoying but they should remove the $ sign from infront of SNG/MTT chipstacks. Only use it for cash games, IMO.

We actually use the $ or € symbol to distinguish real money games from play money. You'd be surprised how many people play both.

Account balances and tournaments in Euro are now available to residents of Italy, over at PokerStars.it. A lot of the technical work has been already been done to bring these to .com, but there are big decisions still to be made about exactly how conversions between currencies will be handled - given the significant fluctuations in currency of late, it's extremely important that we get this right.

My guess is that we are looking at months rather than years or weeks.

It would be great if someone from Pokerstars could drop by and say when the RSA tokens will be available ? Weeks ? Months ? This Year ?

Our current plan - subject to change, subject to a whole series of factors - is for RSA Security Token to be available within weeks.

We want to release them as soon as possible, but also want to get it right.

1. Please give us an option to show stack sizes of players who are sitting out without having to hover over them. When playing DoNs it's sometimes very important to know the stack sizes of people who are sitting out to know who's gonna be blinded out first. Now it says 'name / sitting out' when it would be much better (at least in DoNs) to have it say 'sitting out / $567'. Hovering over the name is an annoyance when other tables pop up. I don't wanna see the name of a player, I wanna see his stack size.
