I find myself with about 67% of people just color coded by player type and maybe 1/4 of those have an actual note so I often don't bother checking to see if I actually have a note on them.
+1 to this

A quick note: The client update that took place today had only minor WCOOP-related updates.

I feel like this should've been included years ago, but it isn't too late.

When I am in the big blind and it limps to me, if I accidentally click fold, stars pops up a box saying are you sure you want to fold, and allows you to check or fold. Why does it not give me the option of raising?

Searched this thread and did not find this suggestion yet, although its pretty obvious:

- Have an option to save table sort settings

If you click the notes tab, and then click on the down arrow, it will show you a list of all the people you have played with on that table. I don't know if that helps your situation.

The fix works properly. If it doesn't work for you, you either
a) haven't clicked the "Don't show this..." checkbox in the dialog which shows when the tournament loads or
b) use a 3rd party tool which screws things up (HEM hud for example) or
c) haven't selected the correct option in the advanced multi-table options.

I'm sure this has been brought up before but if not does anybody know why the sit and go lobby isn't like that of the cash game where you can see the players names on the right hand side?? It really is a pain for game selecting having to open each individual sit and go up to see who is registered. It would save a ton of time if they just had the players names off to the right hand side.

Hey PokerStars
I'm probably not the first, but still:
1. Can you change "sit out next blind" to "sit out next BIG blind"?
2. Can you add an option to unjoin all of your waithing lists?

Thank you

Thank you
The option "sit out next BB" should be on every table, not just the fast tables. We've only been requesting it for about three years... so, no rush. You can see how my avatar feels about it.

It could be HEM HUD I guess, but I don't understand what you're saying about a) ... that dialogue doesn't appear for me, just loaded a tourney with no other software to make sure that some 'ok' wasn't being clicked for me but nothing comes up...

The latest HEM beta, 1.11.05 beta 10, solves the stealing focus I believe.

Not for me sadly as that's what I've been using. Sigh.

If you don't see the popup when a tournament loads, you have or some program has already clicked the checkbox to never show the popup again. So that's not the problem.

I suggest playing a couple games without any 3rd party programs running to see if the focus issue still exists.

Just to be clear: when I said the fix works properly, I meant new tables don't pop to front. I have no idea if it still affects note taking and chatting etc.

something that I have always wanted is for the info tab to automatically update instead of having to click refresh... when you are multi-tabling and you want everything to always be up to date, it's very hard to click refresh 24 times

Well since I tile, that's the only thing that really matters to me. And yes it still steal focus for that. You have to click back into the chat or note box. It gets really annoying when you're trying to take a quick note before the debustifier closes the table.

Dunno if this has been posted, but how about a separate transfer section exclusively for staking. For this you would select the tournament(s) the horse is playing, and then if there is a markup, you'd put that percentage into a separate box. Then it would calculate your percentage of the share, and an instant transfer occurs after the horse busts from his tournament. The horse would also have to agree to the amount being sent (just for markup reasons), and if he doesn't play in a tournament, the money is auto refunded.

Hello 2+2,

We will have a new client update over the next few days which will introduce many exciting and new features detailed below. Do keep in mind those features will only be shown after the clients have been updated, which should happen by the end of the week.

Session Options – We are introducing with this release an integrated platform that easily allows you to manage your state during a session. When you are playing you will notice a small additional icon on each of your tables that gives you easy access to the Session Options. From there you can Sit out on all tables, Sit out next Big Blind on all tables, Resume play on all tables that you are sitting out on, and end your session gracefully – Sit out next Big Blind on all tables and close them. For immediate feedback about the state of your session, the table icon will change from a green play sign when you are sitting in on all tables, to a yellow play/pause icon when you are sitting in on some and sitting out on other tables, to a red pause icon when you are sitting out on all tables.

Auto buy-inAuto buy-in allows you to instantly buy in after left-clicking Seat Open without any intermediate steps. Simply set up your buy in preferences once, and the next time you sit at a table you will automatically buy in. Auto Buy-in can be set up through “Options” > “Auto-Buy-In (Ring Games)...” or by clicking on the link in the traditional buy-in dialog. Want to buy in as an exception for a different amount? Simply right-click on Seat Open and the traditional buy-in dialog will show up.

"Seat me" – When you select a table that has empty seats in the ring game lobby, you will notice a Seat Me button below the Go to Table button. Clicking Seat Me automatically opens the table for you and sits you in one of the empty seats on the table. If you have Auto Buy-in enabled, you will be automatically bought in for the desired amount; if not – the usual buy-in dialog will appear. In this way taking a seat can be a single-click process from the main lobby.

Sit out next big blind – We have changed the existing Sit out next blind check box on fast tables to Sit out next big blind, and have added the new check box to regular-speed tables as well.

Stack tables layout – We have added the ability to Stack all your tables in addition to the already existing Cascade and Tile. This feature can be accessed either from “View” in the main lobby, or through the Table Layout menu on the table. Shortcut key is Ctrl+8.

Average Stack column – This is a new column in the ring game lobby which shows the average stack of the sitting in players on the table.

No Chat in table tooltip – when you have lost your chat you now have the ability to display No Chat in your table tooltip by activating “Options” > “Show No Chat in tooltip”. This option is only available if you have lost your chat privileges – if you are able to chat at the tables this option would not show.

Notes reliability – We have changed the way notes are saved so that you do not lose your notes when the client is closed in a non-conventional way.

Remove from all waiting lists button – The waiting list dialog (“Requests” > “Waiting on Tables...”) now has a “Remove me from All Waiting Lists” button.

Link to last hand when dealing stops – You will now be able to access the last hand when dealing stops. The Previous link will remain active on the table instead of disappearing. Do note that usually the last hand is the cancelled hand, and the red Replay button will not open a hand that has been cancelled. To look at the last complete hand, click on the Previous [Hand ID Number] link and use the Instant Hand History.

Display Bet Amounts defaults to on – This option is now enabled by default on new installs and activated for players who have not explicitly disabled it.

Advanced action Check moved – To avoid mis-clicks when selecting the Check advanced action we have re-positioned Check slightly higher so that it does not overlap with the Call [Amount] check box which appears when someone bets before you.

Tournament Tickets dialog improvements – The window accessed through “Requests” > “Tournament Tickets” has been improved. Among other things, it will now list all tournaments that accept a specific ticket typed.

Once again, those updates will only be in effect after the client programs are updated, which should happen by the end of the week. Thanks a lot for the great feedback in this thread and we hope that you will enjoy the new features and changes!
