anyone notice that 888 tourneys don't have antes in their structure. Not sure whether this is good or bad, but it seems to make tourneys run a bit slower.

Another thing that was just pointed out (not sure if mentioned earlier) is preferred seating positions are currently not available.


Also turning chat off for everyone instead of one by one.

you can change it so that your always centre screen. i always am.

i think they have two views - one is a top down view, where you could be seated anywhere, but the other is a 3D(ishkinda) view over your players shoulder. in this view you are always front and centre i believe (or you can make it so)

I'm thinking more of a nominate your preferred seat and use whatever view you want scenario.

Actually, I don't even care for fancy views - that's completely secondary for me. Standard top down view is fine.

888pl website is going live. Seems there's adding changes all night, website looks the same (broken in places). 888pl games just opened up in the 888 client as well. There's a freeroll listed for 12pm tomorrow. No info on starting stacks, but I'm assuming 1500. Also, 5 min levels wtf?

Thanks Krunchie.

Note to contributors, I have been working since midnight, and noone is in at the office and I have already worked a full day! So Garth may be a little cranky! LOL.
