I'd like to see a built-in feature to late register MTTs early.

For example; Hot $109 - 60 minutes of late registration.

You open the lobby and either in the lobby or the registration confirmation pop-up there is a button to "Late Register". After clicking this option you are allowed to select a value 1-59. At the time you request, the MTT will pop-up and you begin playing. However, you registered for the tournament an hour before it began.

I have also been waiting for this to happen

will the group tables be a replacement or an addition to the current table list in the lobby,
in other words: when table grouping is implemented will regs still be able to look at the lobby the way it is now with just a list of every table you filtered..

I like the changes made in the beta. Maybe you can have the tournament lobby changeable to the users request, like have a bars edit option i.e users can slide the 'Buy in' bar next to the new 'prize pool' bar in the beta

buy table ninja... it will do it for you

thats not what he meant

This. My hands per hour have basically been cut in half since they removed the ability to sit down at empty 5/10 and 10/20 CAP tables. Hoping Stars can fix this asap. Table starter is a great feature, but it needs to be supplemented.

Can someone at Stars pls acknowledge that these posts (by DoubleD, GobletTamer, et al) re. Table Starter at high stakes CAP are being considered?

This software feature is significantly reducing the number of 10/20+ CAP games that run. Regs in these games are posting constructive comments, and nothing is being acknowledged.

Any chance you can add another check box to the "Advanced Multi-Table Options..."?

Also Greece, Portugal, and Switzerland. Thanks.

Any idea on possible release date?

they're on it...

cant wait for this

Yes it has been suggested, like a hundred times already. Every time its suggested people point out what a truly awful idea it is, not to mention it breaking the terms of stars' licence from their regulator.

Cool!

Idea:

Different betslider for Tourneys vs Cash. I want to open smaller in mtts, bet smaller post-flop usually.

I'd like to see a preview of the table, when a seat gets available. This preview should include player names, stack sizes, color label, seat assignment (obviously) and maybe even VPIP and average pot size. This would help to see immediately if it is still worth to join the table.

We are working on it -- the main challenge is that the PokerStars client has to migrate to Cocoa when we have been using the previous Apple API. This is quite a big task and only after this is done, would we be able to support retina displays properly. Soon!

No, it was not an illusion, but there were some technical issues. We have to fix those and then see if we can deploy this again.

Will look into this.

We have been thinking about this, just priorities are elsewhere right now.

I will check with the ring game folks and let you know about this.

Interesting idea -- will look into this.

This happens when your internet connection is slightly slow (even if temporarily). We made some changes shortly after ZOOM deployment that should have reduced the incidence of those beeps for most players.

Re: The playing audit improvements: I think your suggestions are very nice, but right now we are not looking to further improve the playing audit. Will certainly keep in mind when we re-visit this feature.

Should be in February, but I don't have the final launch dates.

That's an interesting idea, but it strikes me as a very niche one to get a priority in the near future.

It will be in addition to and yes, current view will be still there.

Thanks. Actually this very feature is planned to be rolled out next week!

Sure, they are being considered. The issues raised are more about ring games offering than software improvements, so perhaps this is not the best thread to have an in depth discussion on those. But I can assure you that those posts are all read and considered.

Nice idea -- will keep it in mind for the future.

This would indeed be quite useful in some cases, but one significant downside of this feature is that it will lead to a lot of cherry picking when joining via the wait lists, which will inflate the wait list numbers a lot and create a somewhat worse experience for other players.

can we get a racetrack table for the nova theme?? I prefer racetrack to top down for headsup. Any plans for new themes? Please pimp my table pokerstars...

Go to the software forum, there's a ton of modded themes to choose from.

Can you be transparent and explain why you did one thing for 40-100 BB tables, but another thing for CAP tables? FWIW pretty much everyone would agree that extreme bumhunting and seating scripts are a larger issue in the 40-100BB games than in the CAP games, so if anything it should be the other way around with regards to which games still spawn regular tables.

^^^ i already said that stars could always have them side by side to avoid legal issues

And then all you're left with is a truly awful idea

We have implemented Table Starters in the same fashion for both CAP games and 40-100BB games at all NLHE games from 5/10 to 50/100.

Only one table spawns as normal, and any further tables have been started using Table Starters.

I've just tried to sit at two empty 25/50 tables, one CAP, one 40-100bb. As a result one more empty 40-100bb table was spawned, whereas CAP table wasn't. What am I doing wrong here?
