Bring back the Hot-o-Metre

I sometimes forget little things like what wins between a straight and a flush and the hot-o-metre had the order of hands in it. Plus it just helped with the odds calculator haha

    It is one of the things that make this site unique but personally I don't think I have ever used it.

    Hi, 

    Cheers for your feedback, we heavily debated putting in the hot-o-meter in the new update but chose against it. There are many fans of this feature and we will continue to consider the hot-o-meter as an option. 

    If more players would like to show their support of the hot-o-meter please leave a post saying what you liked about it and how we could improve the old hot-o-meter in your eyes.

    Cheers.

    At my Local Casino, they gave me my own Hot-o-meter run by batteries!!

    Its about 9 inches long, Buzzes, & vibrates, seems to wobble when I get a Big Pocket Pair but that might just be me!!


    It Dont work as well as Skys Hot-o-meter, which was very clear to read!!
    I suppose its programmed not to give too many 'Live tells', but at least everyone at My tables seems to think is Hilarious!!

    Funny, the Pretty girl dealers, seem to Blush when I use it, and One Camp Man dealer is always looking at it, and winking at me, think this maybe some sort of Collusion technique!! 

    I have never seen anyone else with one..
    Gee, I'm such a Lucky little Hitdonk!!

    Although a bit gimmicky, I found it really useful for learning the game. I had never played before joining SkyPoker. While there are sites that would provide those odds, it was a great to have them there as hands developed.

    I personally think its a nice feature, knowing the odds is useful when need to make a tough call hoping for a straight or flush. Another tihng i dislike is the fact that the picture cards are now just letters, its just a little thing but i like the excitment of going all in and seeing a picture card- hoping youve hit :)
