Can you provide a screenshot?

Absolutely no clue what you mean ... ubuntu PokerTH 1.1.2 build is stable and there were no usage issues so far.

Imagesure. no problem. once I hit log in, this "lobby screen" is what comes up.......... and I cannot find any way to get past this screen to actually bring up a graphic of a table so as to simulate the game as if in person.

maybe it is something on my end.

that said, i have checked all the settings on this end so as to get to a graphic that represents a table...just like the great one I have been getting as I have been learning with the "local game" option.

anyway, kindly see attached. thank you. i can take a shot of anything else you might want....

Ok.

Screenshot is not attached, but I get a picture...

First of all: try a local game instead of internet game - this will start immedeately after clicking.

Second: The lobby shows open ranking games and maybe custom games you can join by double clicking on it in the gamelist view.
Few custom games are for invitation only - you can see with a lock symbol kinda.

You can also create your own custom or ranking game and wait for other players to join.

In the end: a game starts when 10 players have joined (custom games can be filled up with bots, or you as a creator can start a custom game with less than 10 players).

Just please read all of your options in lobby.
