Any way to stop tables closing?

When your not involved on the table and are just watching or railing is there any way to leave the table open permanently?


It is especially anoying if you are in an mtt and watching other tables that your friends are on, if you get involved in a hand on your table you sometimes miss the "do you want to leave this table open" box and then it is a hassle to look through the lobby and find them again.

    I'm afraid there isn't Mr Miyagi.

    we have to set those restriction due to site performance issues. The current time limit is 10 minutes. If you guys would like to debate this, we'd be more than happy to consider the feedback.

    It's no real major problem Rich, just a bit of a nuisance if you want to go back to watch the table as you have to open the lobby back again, find the player and then watch the table.


    It wouldn't be so bad if the tab flashed when the 30 second timer comes like it flashes if it is your hand and you have the table closes. But it doesn't it waits until your not looking then sneaks off.

    Hi Rich,

    I have posted elsewhere something that is a major problem.  The new update has made the lobby windows timeout after 10 minutes also.  Now if you are in a 4 hour tourny like most of the main events that would mean you have to press the continue button 24 times during the tourny and what's worse is that it pops up the lobby window over the table.  This can't be a sensible option surely?

    Wouldn't it make sense to have either a slider to decide on the timeout period, up to an hour, or just timeout windows when the tourny finishes or the table is emptied?
