the shadow hand after you have folded

#7 8th December 2007, 1:08 AM

Yes, I like that much better!!

#8 8th December 2007, 1:10 AM

ooh that
its nice
i never noticed it before probably because i never fold

I think the winner here is pokerstars. As much as people talk about rigging for the sake of maximizing action, thus maximizing rake, this will probably put more people on tilt after seeing that they folded what would have been a monster. Personally, I'm indifferent to it. Once I fold, I don't care what I had, just as once I've folded I don't care what the board would come up as. Statistically, I knew the probability distribution for the board and decided against calling. Now I know this is easier said than done and I have used this a few times, but in terms of poker, this feature should make no difference.

i fail to see why some of you are getting so excited about this, i'm afraid.

I like it. You could always look in your HH to see what cards you folded, but this is just a bit more simple and the only thing that it lacked that Full Tilt had. If this gets 5 more fish to call more junk hands because they folded what would have been a monster, then I win.

Uhhh it doesn't work over here. Any option I have to set first?

#14 8th December 2007, 5:27 PM

Hmmm, never thought about the setting people on tilt thing. I just like it because it looks cool to me.

#15 8th December 2007, 5:55 PM

I'll get excited when they give us detachable chat.

Oh, you have to have the table clicked on and put the mouse over your hand.

Ya, I really like that about Full Tilt Poker (except when running 4+ tables)

It downloaded an update automatically when you logged in yesterday or today. After you fold, just MOUSEOVER your avatar or seat, and it shows what cards you folded (Kinda like Bodog... makes me cry when I lay down J/8 and both hit) haha.

that's actually a feature of FTP that I never really use when I'm playing but does come in handy when just watching the pros duke it out.

I agree this is not a big deal in my book but to some maybe it is due to the fact it might bother them to see the winning hand they folded up for display. None the less it all remains the same result, a fold. Happy Holidays everyone!!!!

#21 8th December 2007, 6:13 PM

I don't get mad when I fold the nuts, I just laugh and remember that if I called, the cards would've come out different

#22 8th December 2007, 6:21 PM

haha good point

#23 9th December 2007, 10:17 PM

its about time they caught on .. or caught up whichever way u want to say it

#24 9th December 2007, 11:08 PM

They just need a hand history like Tilt's now, I think that would actually be useful.
