Poker Tweets: PokerStars' New Seat Me System!
January 30, 2017 12:40 pmHere are a selection of some of the top tweets coming from your favorite pros over the past few days, starting with PokerStars’ recent functionality change called “Seat Me”, which takes away a player’s ability to pick a specific ring game table, but instead automatically seats them at a table once their stake level has been chosen:
Daniel Negreanu
“Fantastic changes from @PokerStars to address some core issues that have hurt online poker for years. Long overdue”
Fin Stevens
“@RealKidPoker @PokerStars seat me.. sounds good, anything that makes it fairer for recreational players is good, but don’t like non railing.”
SageDonkey
“@RealKidPoker @PokerStars Being able to rail *helped* not hurt poker. You’ve used a sledge hammer to crack a walnut and are disingenuous IMO”

“@RealKidPoker @PokerStars I love the “Seat me” idea for rings games a lot. I mostly played zoom for that reason alone . But this is great”
