The Poker Points Widget has arrived. (The WHAT?)

Tikay10

Within the next few minutes, the Cash 4 Points "Widget" wil be switched on for ALL players. 

I could describe what it looks like, & what it does - but you will be able to see for yourself shortly.

To see it working, on YOUR Account, just go to the Home Page, it is sort of middley top right hand side. 

Cool, or what?

It tells you.....

How many C4P you have. 

What those points are worth

How many days to go until month end.

Take a look, & give us some feedback, please. 

All in a neat little bar jobbie.

It updates in REAL TIME, NOT after you end your session. OK, not real time, but within 5 or 6 seconds of EVERY HAND finishing.

For Tourneys, it updates AFTER the Tourney has finished.

Suggestions please - what would you call our "Poker Points Widget" if it were your decision? (Shush, but it's techinically not a widget).

My suggestion is the "Sky Wiggy".

YOUNG_GUN

Pidget :P

Like you said it tells you within a few secs because i went in2 my account and it showed less points than what it showed on the widget while i was on the tables playing.But yeah its great idea and a big thumbs up from me sky.

sky wiggy sounds fine i will suggest (c4p wiggy) or something like that lol

wayne1958

o yes very nice,£4.28p- like my teacher used to say could do better.....alas never did...

wiggy keep it clean tk.

TINTIN

it looks slightly flawed just now as is currently showing less points than i logged off with last night and ive also been playing today.

a welcome addition but i have a question, will this eliminate the need to stand from cash tables before midnight on last day of the month for your points to be included?

davelufc

Yep, very good idea this widget jobbie!!

Looks like them online ads from wonga.com!!! (other money lenders are available)

TheDart

Very easy on the eye and a good idea!

Reminds me of Hughie Green's Clapometer!

Lol nice one. Sounds great when you say it out loud!!!!!!!!

DOHHHHHHH

Must be a big confidence booster for Wrongjohn everytime he logs in to play a session n see's he's owed thousands.

£17.46 doesn't have quite the same impact

Doshometer!

TINTIN

i thought a quick session would make the totals the same but not to be, account points is still 52 more than the widget says

shaun09

Looks great and makes it alot easier for players to see there points and how much they are going to get at the end of the Month! Great Job

Hi Guys,

How come there's a small discrepancy for some of you in the poker points earned displayed in the 'widget' vs 'my account' ?

Here's the answer.... it's a little complex to explain so please bare with us. Basically the two methods calculate points slightly differently for cash table play and during this transitional month there could be a small discrepancy either way.

The 'my account' poker points only counts points once you have stood up and ended your session at the cash table.

The 'widget' updates in real time whilst you are seated at the cash tables - you don't need to stand up for them to count.

What does this mean?

Imagine you were playing a cash table session at the very end of February which bridges the midnight cut off for cash for points.

E.G. You sit down at 10pm on the 29th Feb and you dont stand up until 1am on the 1st March. The old 'my account' system would count ALL of the poker points earned in that cash table session in your March Cash for points total. This meant you had to stand up before midnight for them to count to your current month (not very useful)

The widget is more sensible, in the above example, all the points earned between 10pm and 23:59:59 would count towards February. All the points earned between midnight and 1am would count towards March.

Since this is a month in transition, the widget may show a few points less than 'my account' for now, if you had one of these sessions which bridged the gap. If you then do the same at the end of march, the widget will now count more points than the 'my account' section remember, so it will likely balance out.

To counter this, at the end of March, we will check your poker points earned as displayed on both the 'widget' and your 'my account' and we'll pay the cash for points bonus on whichever is highest.

Hope that makes sense - if you have any more q's please ask

Best Wishes

MAXALLY

Good job this will only happen once every 4 years then or it could get complicated! 

Will this new go go gadget also tell you when you are being paid your C4P's?
