- when manually posting the small blind on the 2/4p table this morning the button was asking me to "post small blind 6p" instead of 2p.
Did only put 2p in though.
- Instead of letting the tables reduce beyond the minimum size and an error message popping up, can you not just prevent it going any smaller so we can make all tables as small as possible without having to pay any real attention?
alternatively/preferably, just keep/add the mini view button which does it in 1 click per table?
- Wud also like the note colour of the player to be visable around the ring whilst the timebar is on that active player.
alternatively/preferably make the whole circle a solid colour according to the note he has instead of avatars.
first edit, (probably of many)
- When you use the advanced fold can you make it clearer that this button has been pre ticked? At the moment the colour of it just fades, maybe put a big red tick over the button or something?

Brilliant and superslick. Well done Sky and hurry up and release it for all forms of the game.
All the comments are exactly the sort of feedback that we are after and we really appreciate your views.
Thanks a lot for highlighting the issue regarding the wrong blind amount been shown on occasion when joining a table. This issue has now been completely resolved (as per your observation this morning)
When using the web browser, if you resize the window smaller than the minimum size, then you can click anywhere on the screen and the table will automatically resize to the smallest possible view. (It’s technically impossible to stop a user resizing their web browser window below the minimum mini view size)
Alternatively, one of the options in the options menu under 'Gameplay' is 'Open in mini view'. This can be saved as a default setting so that every table you open in the future will automatically open up in the smallest mini view window, you can then still resize these windows as normal if you wish.
Another option is to use the new tiling button (this works best in the download client) to resize all open windows for you with minimum overlap.
We have considered adding a ‘mini view’ button to the table as you suggested but didn’t feel it was necessary with all of the above functions available. Feel free to discuss this though as it would certainly be something that we would consider implementing if the demand was high enough.
Regarding the notes comment, the entire background of a player’s avatar will have the matching colour to the outer ring, so this is visible when the timer is counting down when a note is attached.
We agree this could be clearer, plus some colours are already clearer than others, we’ll look to get this improved.
On the pre-action buttons, we’ve tested various methods previously and the beta feedback has taken us to where we are now, but thank you for your comment it will be interesting to see what others think on this.
Thanks again for your comments.
Which features did you think were of a positive nature?
Let us know if you have anymore thoughts at all.

Cheers Joe, pleased to hear about the 'open in mini view'.
I was only 1 tabling nl4 and yes it was via the browser, will give more thorough feedback later just thought I'd get a thread going.
I have avatars turned off normally, so I'm better leaving them on to make my note colours more visible?
Theres lots to like about the new layout, I think it's all fine, like auto top up* and that it remembers my seat.
* Im sure beaneh loves this too!
Here's the msg I got when I made them too small, the image itself is rly rly tiny, ironically. Idk why.
But if you click on it and maximise it as much as poss u can just about see.

Tried on download and no such problems

Will do a proper multi tabling session asap probably this evening and report positive/negatives on here.
I missed the bit where you mentioned you were in browser. ya you are always able to resize browser windows, so sounds like this situation has been allowed for.
Been watching some cash tables as im not a cash player and it looks good.
Not tried the daaahhnload yet.
*edit - sound ok on download version too.
I don't like the 'Check' sound effect. It appears to have a little distortion at the end, like a crackle sound.
Table seemed a little slow to open.
I would prefer to see full decks not just a number and suit emblem. Perhaps we could have a choice?
Whenever I clicked HH I was timed out so that feature doesn't appear to be working.
Would prefer statistics to open in a separate window rather than just in chatbox.
What I do like is the fact that help and support and live chat opens directly from chatbox.
And I made a profit of £2.60 so I'm all for the new software.
Does it use less memory than the old software?
As above does it work on iPad?
ughhhhhhhh tried 4 tabling, I really don't like it.
I'm clicking call or check in the small blind to peel an utg open and utg+1 hasn't even acted yet.
Maybe keep the current layout available alongside the new 1? as it is now.............?
