I'm playing a MTT and I've seen a horse shoe, box of tissues and I've currently got something that resembles either a basketball players hand with a ball or something similar.
Any ideas?

I haven't seen it yet, because I didn't have time to play these days, but it should probably be the same at 888 where you can throw things at opponents and etc ... I believe that's it!

There is a challenge that showed up today called throwables but it doesnt explain what it is about. So maybe this is something to do with that. Maybe if you complete your challenge instead of winning a ticket or money you get the chance to throw something. I throw enough things when i play poker as it is without having to complete a challenge.

They have the same thing on another site. Fun just to toss things, especially at players that always delay the game or get lucky or make big mistakes. Small choice of items on pokerstars, hope we get more.

For Pokerstars players in Italy this feature has been active for some time. I didn't like it, it seems like a childish thing. Please, if anyone knows how to disable it, I'd be very grateful, I didn't find it on the menu.

You can disable the new table graphics engine - settings...table appearance...then click the box to disable.

I do not like the new engine, removed it and so have not seen the new graphics. That said, I do like them on 888 and they do lend a fun element to the game (especially when you play in invitation only games where you are familiar with the players).

I looked there and there was no option to disable this new feature.

Hey Michel,

I just double checked and it is still available to disable. It is on the main lobby where the Settings is found on the right (I presume you are using a PC/Laptop).

2 clicks and I can enable/disable. Good luck.

They're just emotes. Sometimes it's fun to throw a box of tissues at someone after they take a bad beat!

I already disabled it!
The PS must have placed it with the intention of causing the players to provoke each other.
At first I thought it was cool but there are some players who exaggerate. So I decided to disable it.

Actually if you play the forum freerolls you can usually tell the newbies or non members that steal the password because they are the ones overusing these stupid things. Today's all member game was really stupid with non stop rubbish being thrown. It's childish.

Bad beats and vents

I saw that pokerstars has a throwable that can be unlocked by losing with pocket kings or aces. So when you lose you now have the option of throwing a pile of fecies at your opponent. Way to keep it classy pokerstars
