Playing on a second laptop

Allan23Allan23 Member Posts: 877
If i wanted to multi table more than 4 tables (struggle on my current laptop screen) could I log in on another laptop/computer and play on the 2 different screens at once - or can you only login on one device at a time? Don't want to try and be in breach of any rules etc

    Hi @Allan23

    Not sure it would be in breach of any T C's, but it would get awfully messy, as all the Tables would pop up on both Laptops. The software might also prevent it, if it detected 2 different devices.

    Are you using the Browser?

    I use the Download Client & a Laptop, & using Mini-View, 6 tables fit perfectly onto the screen, no overlap, could not be better. (7 is one too many though).

    Good luck, hope you find a solution.

    Thanks @Tikay10 I play on browser as always felt the download has more issues - its been months though since I used the client so will try again and see how it all fits :smile:

    This.

    I tried experimenting with reging on the laptop and playing on the PC once (Like 5-6 years ago before I had a 2nd monitor) to give myself extra screen space for tables. Wasn't worth it, just kept popping up tables on the laptop and the PC, and generally caused more inconvenience.

    Yes @Allan23 give the Download a go for a few nights - I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Takes a while to get used to it, like when your wife has a new hair-do.

    Ah yeah @EvilPingu forgot how messy the lobby would get with it wanting me to open up a table when its already open on my other screen. Its client time

    Get a second monitor, then you will be able to display more tables.

    or reduce the zoom in your browser to 70-80% and you should get 6+ tables in no problem

    I got two 21" monitors and a 17" laptop, Keep my laptop for the lobby and drag my tables across to the monitors, Its fun with nice big tables and does'nt cost that much, the monitors are about the cost of a £5 bounty win :smiley:
