Re: Stars software - x Blind Indicator.... to prevent misclick?
When making a raise, I normally type in the amount like "3" "6" "0" "0" "0".... in this case, I typed one more "0". In the ME post, I saw a guy with KK mistyped the amount at the river too (he bet 350 instead of 3500).
Preflop: it would be helpful if the software can indicate the number of BB's you raised on the amount indicator.
The indicator shows # of BB on top of the slide.
------------>3x
[36000] {===|============}
[Fold] [Check] [Raise to 36000]
OK, if I type 360000, it would be showing:
----------------------->30x!
[360000] {=============|========}
[Fold] [Check] [Raise to 360000]
Now, post flop (turn,river), it will be nice if the sliding bar shows bet size related to pot... like this
Assume pot is 7000, the dude with KK bets 3500,
------------------>1/2Pot
[3500] {==========|===========}
[Fold] [Check] [Bet 3500]
If he mistypes 350 instead, it would have shown "1/20" pot.
------------
Last thing, when deep in the tournament, when new level starts, I normally write down a few numbers on the paper, like
BB:25000, Ante 1000, 9 Handed, PF Pot size: 44000,
3x raise is 7500
3x pf raise 2p pot size will be: 194000.
(numbers are just estimate)
This way I prepare for post-flop play with different stacks.
It will be good if Stars can show some of this numbers in dealer box...
(just my 2-cent, for $10R it's ok to mistype, but when play for $m, misclick/mistype is a critical mistake.)
