Stars tourney lobbies can now not auto-open!

[taipan168]

Great news for those of you who play lots and lots of tables!

Hi there, folks...

If you will look under the Options > Advanced Multi-Table Options... menu, you'll see a new feature we've just added with the recent upgrade: "Auto-open Sit & Go tournament lobby". If this option is UNchecked, when you register for a Sit & Go from the main lobby, the lobby for the S&G in which you've just registered will not pop-up on your screen. The tourney table itself will pop up when the S&G begins, but otherwise you'll never see the lobby unless you open it from the lobby or the tourney table.

Important note: usage of this tool means that to be sure which tourneys you're registered for, you should check under the Requests menu, option "Registered in Tournaments", as the tourney lobbies won't appear on your desktop. The system will also remind you that you're registered for tournaments if you attempt to close the client while registered for something.

All the best,

Sweet!

This is cool. It was always aggrivating having to manually close those lobby windows again and again. Thanks for the heads up Taipan, I never got that e-mail.

yep this option is nice , they also added the 1 click action thingy under the same tab , makes it a lot easier.

[bjsaust]

1 click action thingy? I cant open a client till tomorrow to see this .

[DetroitHusling101]

"single click table activation" is what it's called. so u don't have to double click auto buttons (i.e. fold , check/fold , check , call any , etc)

[bjsaust]

oh, wow I need that. cool!

The amount of times I think I've folded and then the bell rings is silly .

Who uses the mouse for the actions anyway? :P

[elitemob]

Great idea for such a small feature.

Man, I'm feeling like a dumbass...what other option is there?

I'm wondering the same thing BJS is here.

I don't use them because I don't play enough tables to make it worthwhile, but there are scripts known as auto hot key (AHK) scripts that allow you to assign key strokes for various actions eg. fold/call/all-in etc. Maybe mattiesmat can give some pointers?

BTW where we're from the correct spelling is dumbarse

I'm trying to fit in .

No, that's the correct spelling where I'm from. Where you're from it's "dumbaaaahss, mate"

Correct me if I'm wrong but I didn't think that is what it does. I always thought that single click table activation meant that when you click "fold" on a table that is not at the front, it folds. If you don't have this checked, the first click brings the table forward, then you have to click fold again. It means you get less misclicks but is more time consuming.
