Release Notes • Version 5.5.0

August 28th, 2010

Changes In Behavior

If a poker table window goes missing while being monitored, instead of the table monitor closing, the table monitor will continue to look for the table for 30 seconds. This is done in case you're playing a MTT and switch tables. The old behavior was to only look for a moved table if the Game Type was set to MTT when adding the table. The Game Type setting has been eliminated and you are no longer required to select a Game Type when adding a table.

Reading Cards & Table Info

Screen scraping is now a background task, meaning that the poker table windows don't need to be popped up to be read. This should make playing 20+ tables at a time more enjoyable!

One side effect of the new scraping routine is at times the graphics on the poker table window don't redraw properly. If you notice this, clicking the button on the table monitor toolbar will cause all poker table windows to redraw themselves.

Hand Settings

A complete overhaul was done on this area of the software. A brand new, more user friendly interface was built from the ground up.

Hand configuration files now contain only the playable hands & position mapping information. Other settings, such as the muck/check delay timers, SitOut action, & AlertBlinds action have been moved to Program Settings. These settings can still be adjusted after adding a table from within the table monitor.

Settings are saved in the hand config files that allow you to adjust how the auto-folder determines you preflop position.

Different hand configuration files are no longer needed for different game types and you will no longer need to specify a game type when adding a table to the table monitor.
