Lou, if this is a pre-set Flash format that can't be configured then just ignore because getting poker at SBR even in this format is better than not having it at all. However if things can be tweaked then here are a couple of things that would make it better.

Time Bank. While the short time allowed on the norm is great because it keeps things moving there should be an option for extended time when faced with the really tough choices. Maybe one per blind level or something.

Bet Amount. This version does have the slide bar but those things can be aggrevating sometimes when you want a specific amount. If a typed in amount box is available it would be much MUCH better.

The ability to blow the table up to full screen size would make the overall experience better as well.

The sounds are annoying but better than lets be honest any noises will get on your nerves after enough time at the table on any site. Note I wasn't around long enough to become annoyed as I made a terrible read and donked off all my chips.

There are a few other tweaks that could be made but as I said as is, is better than what we had before 2 PM today.

Thanks wal. Many of the requests are things that could be changed, such as moving the fold button over, increasing time bank, improved better slider functionality, sounds as well.

All the feedback is appreciated. This was very much a test run with software that inherently seems to function pretty well and have a clean look to it; the tournament's been running almost four hours now so it's been good to get a little bit of mileage out of the software. Maybe we'll do another soon with an uncapped # of entrants.

Yeah that flop sucked for me.

Jericholic owes me some run good.

Summary of improvements that could be made:

Time Bank (You need at least a bank of 30 seconds for some decisions)
Bet Size Slider
Fold Button Moved to the other end
Disconnect Protection (I had a lot of disconnect time and a 60 second non replenishing bank of disconnect time would have helped while i logged back into the software)
Ability to see tournament lobby
Have the chips bet by the players be put into a pot in the middle of the table. Counting the stack in front of each person as they raise is tedious.
Customizable Avatars
Have a better tournament structure. This is a suggestion but Pokerstars is probably the one to emulate

Add some SNG's and HU tables
Ability to see hand histories
Ability to see blind structure/Breaks (3-5 min is good 2 is not enough) in tournament lobby as well as payouts.

All in all i had a fun time. Thanks for the effort Lou.

This was great Lou.. Can't wait to see more of it soon..

MastaB · 03-22-10, 10:05 AM

when is the next one?

Sorry that I couldn't post this earlier but still want to because this poker is extremely important to me and will decide my days here at SBR.

Lobby is very impressive and extremely nice. Size is normal. Only fault was the advertising banner was quite distracting drawing me away from what I was wanting to see. Made me want to leave lobby as soon as possible. Problem would be solved by simply slowing it down.

In poker room buttons have got to be fixed as many have incicated but no one has mention when table changes from six bars to 3 boxes, what is to come cannot be different then what has left. The check bar went to call box and if the timing is wrong can screw you badly.

Few more seconds need to be added to play time. I was sat out at least 8 times and I know what is normal. Maybe try two warning buzzers instead of only one. Need additional time allowance per tourney of 30-60 seconds by clicking such.

Alot of nice features such as showing odds of catching and stats/game info. While the sounds were a little unual and maybe annoying they were also cool. 15 minute blinds too long. Overall grade of A-. Very Nice Job!
