Platform Updates March 21st

Over the last several months, we've been hard at work iterating on 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. Below is a short breakdown of the most important changes:

Top Right Slide Out Menu
We’ve consolidated all top right options into a single slide out menu. Click the hamburger dots to open the menu, inside you’ll find options such as, Table Info, Hand History, Tile Tables, Sit Out options, Settings and Leave Table. The menu will auto close after a short period.

New Chat
Chat can now be toggled on or off in the bottom left corner of the table. A red dot indictor will let you know when there are new messages to read. Messages also appear as chat bubbles, popping up over avatars.

Table Tiling
You can now find an option to Tile Tables in the top right slide out menu. This will automatically arrange your open tables into a tiled configuration.

Actions
Actions (FOLD, BET, RAISE, etc…) appear above player name on each nameplate. This keeps player names and stack values always visible.

Larger Everything & Improved Readability
Cards, Action buttons, Avatars and frames are all larger. Font readability is improved.

Less Overlap
Table items such as the dealer button, chips, cards and pot have been positioned with little to no overlap.

2 Color Deck
We’ve added the classic 2 color deck.

Going Forward
These changes set us up to offer Double Board Games, Run it Twice and Chinese Poker. We will be working hard to bring these changes to Mobile and the Desktop Client as soon as possible.
