Beginners Lobby
The new version of
888poker has a unique lobby just for beginners. As we all know, if you are new to the poker game, the first time opening a poker client can be a bit overwhelming with an array of choices and settings.
Having a lobby that guides beginners to the right tables and preferences for them takes the guessing out of the game. The lobby displays only six tables, making it easier for the beginner player to make a selection. Of course, there is always the option to view more tables by clicking on the "More Tables" button at the bottom of the screen..
Tournament Lobby
Another great addition to 888poker in this new version is that 888.com has given its
tournament lobby a complete makeover. The new version offers a full player's dashboard that’s updated in running mode, giving players an up-to-date idea of who’s in the game and who’s not. The “Find Me” feature is great – it finds your username in the player list and highlights your table and position. The tournament lobby also lists upcoming satellites to the tournament and lets the player click them open to register without having to search for them individually, making it easy to plan your next poker challenge.
Simple Navigation and Customisation
888poker’s new version is very intuitive and makes navigating as simple as 1,2,3. For example, players can now register and unregister directly from the lobby. A new "Favourites" lobby and a simplified "My Account" also lend to the fully customizable experience, making the game all about the player.
Players can label opponents as various animal icons in order to easily recognize what type of player they are facing. So the next time you sit across a familiar opponent, you'll know right away if you thought he was a shark or a chicken at the last game. The table view can be customized from funky and fun to simple and to the-point, whatever tickles your fancy. Other new additions include a renewed player’s note screen, rich personal image gallery and a mouse-over feature that reveals a tooltip with opponent information.
