[Tentative Release Date: 3 July 2017] You are a recreational poker player and it is your first time in a particular casino. Although the layout of the casino floor is unfamiliar territory, you are able to weave through the crowds and machines like a seasoned veteran. The jingling soundtrack and flashing lights of slots or the typical pit stops and restaurants scattered ever so strategically do not catch your attention. Taking quick glances at the large signs intended to distract you, you have reached your final destination. Mentally prepared for the grind that is to come, you inform the gentleman at the counter of what blinds you wish to play at, and patiently wait your turn to be seated. Five minutes have passed and your initials are at the top of the waiting list. After perusing the latest sports highlights from your cellphone for some time, the floorman announces your initials and you are directed to the table where you greet your adversaries for the night. For those who have frequented land-based casinos, this routine is nothing out of the ordinary. More often than not, it does not take long to find your bearings in an establishment that you have visited for the first time.
But this is not the case at in our online poker room. There is no waiting period unless the tables are momentarily full or you are seated at an empty table waiting for an opponent to be seated. It’s a relatively smooth experience. However, this may not be your cup of tea. Come July 3rd, we will be introducing you to our new features called Group View and Move Table. Players who do not wish to manually spend the time to select a table may now quickly access the Group View tab, where with a simple mouse-click of the Join button allows you to be randomly seated at a table with the blinds of your choosing.

Another feature to complement this new feature is called Move Table. When a player is seated at an active table, clicking on the Move Table button will automatically put you on the waiting list for the next immediate table that opens up. No longer will you have to play the waiting game. Tailored for those who do not wish to deal with the fuss, these features will make your life simpler and allow you to enjoy your gaming.
