There shouldn't be any cap, as there isn't at tournaments.

2. Not enough real estate to lay out 13 cards and then moving them around. That would take a major re-write of the software.

I agree with you. I see people playing 12 tables and slowing down every game they are in. If 10 tables is not enough, PLAY BIGGER. And for the ones just playing for points, they are not good for any game.

p.s. How long till more time zones are added? Pacific would be nice since there are a gazillion players on the west coast. And, how about the option of 12-hour instead of military time only. Now I have to convert to 12, then subtract 3 hrs, and so on. Thanks

12 hour clock is way more confusing.

4. Raise minimum buy-in from 20bb to 30bb for NL.
I agree with these two points, although I wouldn't roll back the number of tables so drastically. Full Tilt caps their tables at 16, and I think that number is at least close to what should be allowed.

Not if it is an option that the individual can choose. A simple check box to choose which you prefer.


21:30 is less confusing than 9:30pm?? I don't think so, IMHO.

Question: I just tried to cash-out via stars and noticed that e-checks were supposedly an option (I am a US citizen playing within the US). I selected cash-out, clicked through and everything seemed OK. Then I went to their website to check how long it would take and the website insists that the e-check method only works for Canadians. Why did the software let me go through with this? Which is right, the software or the site? If the site is wrong, I assume that I will just receive an email and the funds will be re-deposited into my account?

Also -- if the website was wrong and e-checks are working again for US players, any idea on approx timeframe for the funds?

Thanks

I multi-table DoN SNG's and a lot of players will sit out after making a big stack. I know it shows after a second if I hover over it or if I open the lobby, but when I'm playing a zillion games I don't have time for this.

Please put the SITTING OUT message over the icon or somewhere what allows me to see the players chip count.

Please! This is costing me $$$$...

Highlight the sit&gos in the lobby that we are registered for.

Better sit&go filter that allows us to set the exact min/max buy-in.

I want to practice some micro HU and I dont want to put money on some other crappy site. <B stars.
yes please make some hu games at this stake for nl and plo


Can we get an option in the player search to join all tables a player is on? I want to target regs and 3bet the crap out of them for fun.


All fast tables sounds awesome, having 2 differnt kinds of tables and having to do differnt things (posting blinds in different ways) when starting and ending a session is really annoying.

I don't know about making all of the tables fast, but I do agree that handling blind posting like it is on the fast tables should be standard. I don't see any sensible reason why you can't assume that someone who is not sitting out already might not want to play the hand just because the blinds reached them. Not to mention that it is really annoying to sit out some hands to go to the bathroom or make something to eat and then wind up inadvertently posting a late blind because I forgot to uncheck the auto-post blinds box when I sat back in.

OK, so maybe I'm a masochist, but I would like to see a massive mix game with virtually every game on Pokerstars included.

The order should be as follows:
NL 2-7 Single Draw
5-Card Draw
Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
Limit Hold-em
Limit Omaha Hi/Lo
Badugi
Razz
Stud
Stud Hi/Lo
NL Hold-em
PL Omaha

This would allow for maximum confusion for the people who don't pay any attention. And if the day ever comes when Stars adds Pineapple, that would go between LHE and LO8.

I know, right? I've completely stopped playing anything but the 8-games, and would love to expand it some more.

I too would love a dealers choice, but it would have to have some restrictions in place. Like, dealer chooses the game for the whole round, and you can only choose a game that hasn't been played in at least 5 rounds.


Or better still, the sickest game ever... Every hand is a randomly chosen game at a randomly chosen limit! So you would sit a "low stake" random game table, where the games would be from .25/.50 to 1/2 NL/PL and from 1/2 to 3/6 limit games of a totally random variety. Now THAT would be fun. (see, masochist!)

How about consistency on how they are displayed? Some SNGs don't even use the buy-in column to display the buy-in.
