V2 Table Refactor Now Live On Desktop, Improving All Areas Of Gameplay

Over the last several months, we've been hard at work iterating on what we called v1 of our tables, going through a complete refactor (overhaul) of the entire experience. As of today, we're thrilled to announce the culmination of that hard work, as we release v2 for desktop (mobile to follow), the next generation of play at Phenom Poker.

What's New?

Overhauled UI/UX

Almost everything on the table has been enlarged and/or slightly moved, in an effort to eliminate dead space and improve readability with less overlap. Action buttons appear above the player name on each nameplate, keeping the name and stack values visible.

Hamburger Menu  

We've moved the menu to the upper right corner, which will expand and contract as you interact with it. You'll find options such as table info, hand history, tile tables, sit out options, general settings and leave table.

Improved Chat Functionality

Chat is now handled as a slide-in module that appears above the action. Simply click on the bottom left corner where the icon is and you can chat without leaving the action. Chat bubbles appear above player names and a red dot will indicate if there is new chat to read.

Table Tiling

Like to multi-table? We've installed a one-click table tiling feature that will get all of your tables in their spot.

Ease of Future Improvements

This refactor clears the way for future improvements that our community has requested, like double board games and run it twice.
