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.

No chance with your screenshot.

You can try to send pics to webmaster@pokerth.net - might be easier than using the forum attachment feature.

The issue is not the options in settings.... the moment when you enter lobby is the perfect spot.

Please let us continue by email .... we do not want to loose you too ;-)
