Betonline Sportsbetting Poker - How to take game screenshots

[Gary_Heart]

As you may know Chico Poker has stopped us from taking screenshots of our Sportsbetting and Betonline games.
Tools such as Gyazo and Windows Snipping tool etc. no longer work

Why they did this I don't know - I mean - what's the big secret right
But they decided to use software similar to pay video streaming sites that block video capture.
That is - They now block us when we play from their desktop client.

Screenshots are still possible from their mobile client and turn out pretty good when posted here at CC.
You can of coarse also take a picture of your display screen with your phone or another camera but it may turn out something like this:

I have gotten around this by not playing from their desktop client.
Here is a sample screenshot taken from browser Firefox of their online poker game lobby.

Here's how to play online to take screenshots of today's Chico poker games:

1) Open favorite browser and go to:
1a) Sportsbetting.ag -> https://www.sportsbetting.ag/poker
or
1b) BetOnline -> https://www.betonline.ag/poker

Once there look for the "play online" button and click it

The URL
Uniform Resource Locator, colloquially termed a web address
changes to https://poker.betonline.ag/desktoppoker/index.htm
And ....Eventually the online game sign in page opens

Enter your user name and password and click Sign In
(Check the box to remember if you like)
Here is BOL - the same applies for SBP ....

Excellent; I was already crazy taking photos. But this is cool. This will help future captures. A problem solved. :thrasher::dancing::elefant::dancing2:

As you can see I have my filter on.
This is to minimize other games allowing me to find CC games easier.
If you are interested - my filter settings for this view are:

And once you pick a game or tournament -
You can use your favorite screen capture tool to snap pictures of the lobby
( I like to make the lobby as tall as possible to capture as many players in one shot as possible)

nice thread sir
I don't know if the view is the same in the browser but I use this method (red arrow) to find CC games, most times I just type cards.




again not sure of the view in the browser but I also use the register (bottom arrow)
button in there so I don't have to register again when I get in the poker lobby.
it really helps if you have ever forgotten to register after getting in the poker lobby.

Thanks for the descriptions.

(Today a poker streamer said on Twitch, he cannot show his Sportsbetting tables, because they made it invisible for Twitch and such applications.)

Thanks Gary.

I've just recently started playing on SportsBetting and at first I thought I was going crazy while attempting to take a screenshot of my tables.

Wow! This is crazy that you can't even stream SB now either. Seems like such a poor decision by them as it limits their free advertising on Twitch.

You playin' much over the Christmas holiday Daniel? I haven't been but am hoping to for the rest of the week - - LOTS of fish on the tables from the small bit I have played so far.
